unknown WW1 cap & collar badges
I would be most grateful if anyone can shed light on the regiments of the gents in the attached photos...
I am particularly interested in the first two. Presumably the third is KRRC or a Light Infantry regiment (unfortunately no collar badges as further clue). Any help appreciated! |

Middle image is Royal Berkshire Regiment.

Does the 3rd image show collar badges or buttons on the lapels?

Thanks Leigh for the swift reply!
Yes, Royal Berkshire Regiment looks to be spot on. Did have this as possible, but was not quite sure. Any ideas on the first one? |

No collar badges on third gent. Buttons look like could be Rifles buttons.

The closest I can get with the 1st image is possibly the Royal arms, but it doesn't quite seem right for that. It may be.....
A Lancere Regiments badge? |

I also wondered if British Indian Army cavalry might be a possibility?

That's what I'm wondering, for some reason if Indian or Canadian.

Perhaps 89th Punjabis?
I had initially thought that has coat of arms in centre and flags (on lances?), with King's crown at top. However, what looks to be sides of coat of arms could be ends of scroll, with other motif in centre. |

/QUOTE] Thank you. Indeed, Canadian Signals looks to be a good match. |

The 2nd image is 100% Royal Berkshire. Boss is khaki coloured ,badge bronze with a red circular backing to the badge only.
3rd image ,im not sure. Initially id say KRRC but the boss looks a bit dark to be red. The boss could be rifle green or black possibly. |
