LRDG Group photo
Was going through my pictures a few months back and started scanning them.
One was of a group of 4 soldiers in the LRDG. Not sure whether they are British or Rhodesian (Picture was found in Cape Town, South Africa) Are any of these guys recognizable to the LRDG specialists? |

Would 4 soldiers constitute a section of some description? Sort of "class photo"???

Thanks Mike. It was just a thought.
As suggested, the similarity of the background would lead to the conclusion that these photos were taken either around the same time and certainly at the same place. As a footnote, you sometimes see group photos from both WW1 & 2 that have been taken in the Middle East that feature a number chalked on a small sign at ground level (much as you would have a label that said what you had planted in your allotment....). This does not appear to be a feature of these photos but I was told that it enabled the sitters to uplift their photos from the "studio" by quoting the number. |
