You could try on the Long, Long Trail message board. If you post a photo of him someone would be able to help you I am sure. Regards Jill |

Marie, If his badge is discernable, there are a number of websites showing regimental badges - just google and something will pop up. If - big 'if' - you are able to identify the badge yourself, you can then go directly to the regimental museum or association for more information. I've found them very helpful indeed. Good luck.
