Trevor, I'm not the greatest person to color this photo for you but I have run a couple of filters over it and made it much crisper. If you like, I will replace your posted photo with the clean sharp version I have just done.

Cleary, Doran, Boland, McCooey, McManus, O'brien, Martin, Savage, Wallis, McCollister, Wood.  (More to come soon)

Here it is anyway. I have now coloised it for you. I posted a version earlier today but the colour of the pants was a bit too green compared to your photo. I think this ones getting close to the mark.

Let us have to correct colors for the Regt Board and we will clean up and produce a final effort.

Is it the Ghurka regiment, circa 1960's? and possibly Aden.

Hi Folks,

Sorry I should have said its the Trucial Oman Scouts (now the United Arab Emeraties) I was seconded from the Brit Army to train them.

The headress was red and the officer ( the one with the stick his shirt is blue)
