34th Division - Queen's

[Jelly Terror]

I'd like to share this recent find:

34th Division (101st Brigade); Queen's Royal West Surrey; overseas service chevrons; good conduct chevron.

I believe being 34th Div., this makes our man 2/4th Queen's, and places the photo post-June 1918. Can anyone please confirm?

With thanks,

JT

Can just see a bayonet there too, I think...

Thank you, Graham.

Would you know if the 2/4th was the only battalion of the regiment to be part of the 34th Division?
