Inching forwards?  The shoulder title is one of the curved variety in which only the center three/four letters are distinguishable (I drew the line at KFC). The arm badge looks like a drummer's badge but the breast badge is new on me.

I am tempted by the RWARWICKSHIRE shoulder title and if I squint a bit could persuade myself that the letters near centre are the WIC.

Unsure.

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,

Good afternoon,

Possibles for a half circle title are;

ROYAL BERKS
R BERKSHIRE
R INNISKILLING
W YORKSHIRE
WARWICKSHIRE

There are a couple of others but don't remember what they are. Some regts changed around ww1 time, ie Berkshires.

Several of these though slope up and in on the ends, the one pictured appears to be horizontal across the ends. Just left the library an hr ago, they have a very good book on shoulder titles.

Added; R HAMPSHIRES
Stephens, Fuller, Tedham, Bennett, Ransome (Sussex)
Rider (Fulham)
Stephens (Somerset)
Kentfield (Essex)
