Default Need ID for Captain N R Munn Cameronians

Large size unmarked Cameronians badge - shown next to regular officer for size.
Named on back to "N R Munn"
I am guessing WW1, but not sure.
Two questions
Who was N R Munn
Why the larger NCO size badge
Thanks so much to Leigh Kitchen for finding this officer. I added a pic of his grave in Malta.
CAPTAIN N R MUNN was badly wounded on Sicily and died on 24 July 1943.
