Any help please?

Can anyone help identify what service/rank this gentleman belonged to? Photo found in my late mother’s collection and we have no idea…. The date is clearly March 1928 but we can’t read the name (if anyone can decipher it, that would be great!

Many thanks in advance

Hello KateH, welcome to the Forum. Your account is active and open for posts.

Welcome.

He is a Lieutenant in the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles), latter is evident from his Cross Belt Plate.

Many thanks for your help Luke.

A very fine portrait. He is wearing the very dark green full dress doublet with black mohair trim, which would have the gauntlet cuffs and Inverness skirts with black horn buttons. That type of cross belt and black cords are typical of all Rifle regiments.

Many thanks for taking the time to post this additional information.

From the 1928 Army List, the closest that I can get to matching the signature is: Lieutenant Kenneth Edward Milford Brunker. On the 18th April 1928 he was 'seeded for Colonial Service'.
