    The Cap badge is Royal Artillery I think. WWI era or very shortly after.

      Looks very much like my Dad's cap Badge. He was in the Royal Artillery in WWII.

          Without trying to promote another Forum, I found that the people on this site are a whizz on uniforms and cap badges, etc from WW1.

              Yes - I recognise the GWF site as being full of experts - helpful ones, too, I gather - on WW1.

                He looks smarter than the RA soldiers in our Costume Gallery, that cap is very crisp looking.
