Simeon Ford - Canadian Royal Newfoundland Regiment 3866 ?

Appears not to have Died ?

Is there any mention of Mildenhall for this man?

Many thanks for having a look. Yes - A real mystery. The only Offord family l have found is a Henry Offord in the 1911 who was a Police Constable. Although, no children have the name Simeon. Maybe the 1921 Census may tell more. Who he is he survived the war because all those on our war Memorial have a record apart from a J Walker. His record has not yet been found. There seems to be a few where the names were played loosely with. Hopefully one day something will come to light with Simeon.

Hi Ian... I was asked about the photo by a lady who had it in her pocession and was trying to find out who it was. I have little Miltary knowledge. That said l thought by posting it on this forum it could narrow down the search by finding the rank and regiment. I suspected he may of been an officer. Although, l have little knowledge on uniform etc and was hoping someone maybe able to tell me more such as yourself. Thank you for your thoughts, it sounds rather puzzling. Unfortunately, l don't have anymore information of which l can give.

Hi. I was wondering if someone could date this photo and possibly tell me the rank and regiment of the soldier. Many thanks in advance.
