Looks to be Inniskillings Silver Arm Badge, but on wrong Arm?? and wrong Regiment, but could this be an intigrated grouping from being disscharged from wounds (hospital) and introduced into a Scottish Rgt to make up numbers?? On ALL counts look forward to hearing your thoughts probably have this all wrong but here is the Arm badge for comparison.

On the corporal’s lower left sleeve they look to me like three parallel gilding metal wound stripes.
The arm badge above the lance corporals stripe is indistinct. Possibly a ‘battle badge’ consisting of a cloth geometrical shape? Tim

Billy, are you talking about the three wound stripes? The light makes the middle one of them look shorter than the others.
