Lieutenant, c1910


The scarlet tunic has blue facings as befits a Royal regiment. The bearskin has a green plume on the left side and the fusilier bomb badge at the front. The red stripe down his trousers is obscured by the scabbard. His medals are the two South Africa medals. Painting by Harry Payne.
