My 81 year old Mom has definitely confirmed the guy lying on grass on right side of photo is her Dad Cpl Robert Elphinstone. Thanks so much for posting that picture as its been going around the family all afternoon and evening! Hope there are more photos out there.

I am very sure that is my grandfather Cpl Robert Elphinstone laying on the grass on the right side of the photo. He enlisted from Aberdeenshire, Scotland into 405th Highland Field Co, Royal Engineers on 13 Feb 1915. To my knowledge he served with them until being transferred to 203rd Field Co, RE in Jun 1918 where he was wounded 3 times until being hospitalized for 4 months after being wounded on 28 Sep 1918. Do you have anymore pictures of 405th during the 1915-1918 time frame? Dave
