Jerry,

A great and interesting photograph, I would imagine post war but could be wrong. What I find interesting is the wearing of the light coloured lanyards, not seen those on many Great War Guards photographs.

Simon.

Apparently they had not standardized the wear of STs at the time of the photo. A lot of "Wild Woodbines" being consumed by that lot. Scandalous and offensive today
