Dear Jackie To date I haven't received the photo but I think I read that you had some information from the Army to say it was standard issue or something.

Dear Jackie If all else fails and no-one can identify the cap you could email me a description and I will telephone a friend who is an expert on such matters and then get back to you.

Are any researchers able to identify an Army garrison cap for me? I'm trying to obtain my fathers WW11 Army records but as I've never been able to obtain his birth cert and as I've no idea of the regiment he was with or his service number, the Army Records Office cannot find him. They have been extremely helpful and have looked through their database with no luck...but it's believed Dad lied about his age to enlist. I have a portrait photo of my father in Army Uniform but unfortunately there's not any badges on his uniform. His cap appears very unusual and might identify his unit. As he was living in Manchester, I'm hoping it may have been a regiment attached to Manchester.
