He was discharged from the RFA, but he did serve for a while. Would he have been entitled to wear a version of the uniform for a photo after the discharge? And even if not, perhaps he did it anyway.

AlanBoyd,

It is so difficult to find the right person. Or Regiment I shall keep trying.

South Lancashire (Prince Of Wales Volunteers) fits the badge. 100% certain of it.  No chance at all he was RA in that photo.
