        Squinting at the picture I favour 3rd from right 3rd row from top, but if the picture could be made bigger it would be a big help.....

                              I was looking for the Lance Cprl strip, but then thought it depends when the picture was taken, was he a lance Cprl then or had he yet to be promoted?

                                Well I've changed my mind. Looks like the second row back, second man in from left with two medals on.

                                Your Gdad has quite a prominent chin and triangular face and that's why I chose this one.
