Hello Paul,

Is he wearing spurs?

That's a mean old tam he's sporting too!

How about Royal Scots Fusilier? He appears to have a Fusiliers grenade on his shoulder. Can anyone ID the Div patch on his arm?

Hi Alan,
That seems like a good shout, I noticed the large grenade cap badge but I was unsure of the bonnet.

Many thanks
Paul

Yes, Royal Scots Fusiliers wearing a Tam-o-Shanter bonnet and 2 piece shoulder titles RSF grenade. Probably from the transport section.
