The collar badge of the Suffolk Regiment is a three turreted castle with a key below, although the detail in the collar badge of your soldier is limited, it is square shaped as is the Suffolk's  collar badge, I am guessing he is in the Suffolk Regiment .

Could you do a higher resolution scan pse??

or link from an external website....

I cannot see the collars enough for any confirmatory comment...  :(
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

Sorry have tried for a clearer one, but to no effect as the light on the collar is too bright.
