Hi Annie

I'm afraid I don't know where the photo was taken.  This photo was among many others left when my grandmother died.  My grandfather is in the middle of the back row, so sometime from 1914.   

I was quite intrigued to see women amongst the group as well

the attached photo is of mt grandad, i know very little about his military career other than he joined quite late in the war, (he was born in 1898)

I believe the cap badge is that of the machine gun corps, abd presumably the 169 relates to the 169th (3rd london Brigade)

can anyone confirm this and tell me where I could find out more about the regiment

Hi, you'll need to start your own thread about this, and also change the name of your photo slightly or you won't be able to post it again.

Cheers,

Hi
the two ladies look as though they are in one of the nursing units, can't get a really clear look.

John, you're commenting on a photo from 2006 which has already been discussed. Ganga should start his own thread.

Hi, thanks for responding
I'm not very familiar with this forum and after much searching I still couldn't find out how to start a new thread soni ragged onto an existing one

Any advice is very much appreciated
Thanks
