WW1 Insignia
Hello,
I would be grateful if someone is able to identify the insignia on my great uncle's cap on the attached photo. It seems to be similar in shape to the Coldstream Guards but is flat at the very top. He would have enlisted in Preston, Lancashire. Unfortunately, I cannot find his service records. Thank you. |

Hello Petal, welcome the the forum, looking at the cap badge it’s not the Coldstream Guards definitely, looks to me to be the Devonshire Regt , did your great uncle have links to that county? have you any more info on him, name etc might be able to find out more about him .

I agree with Alex, it is A.S.C. The soldier is also wearing the 1903 pattern belt which was still largely worn during the Great War by members of the A.S.C.
