Default Additional help with new image: Identify Uniform

Hi everyone,

As I mentioned earlier I've recently begun researching my family tree and I have been given various images. Unfortunately there is no accompanying information with them, and no one surviving to ask!

I was hoping that someone would be able to assist with any information as to rank regiment, possible date from uniform?

Thanks in advance

We should be able to id regiment on this one but need clear scan of the soldier's collar badges - or waist up to catch the arm badge too.

The sleeve badge is a Crown in Wreath, unable to make out the collar badges.

Default Uniform

The uniform is Service Dress and the image is most likely pre-WWII.

This might help, although they are starting to "break up".
