Again many thanks to all those who have replied. Over the weekend we had a sort through my brother-in-law's late father's effects and found these three badges. Obviously one is the Machine Gun Corps and the other two The Kings Regiment, but neither of the soldiers in Photos 1 and 2 appear to be in the Kings Regiment. A few people have said that photo 3 is the MGC but he is wearing the wrong things i.e. spurs. I mentioned this to my B-in-L and he tells me that family history says that Thomas was on horse back when he was killed. Three men on horse back went over the brow of a hill, Thomas was in the middle. He was hit by a shell that took him out, but the other two were untouched . My B-in-L's father Nathan was born in 1907 but his brothers where born John 1881, Robert March 1886 Thomas December 1890 Abel March 1898 James 1904 Nathan 1907 Pictures can be found at http://www.mylancashireroots.co.uk/3_capbadges.htm Thanks again Michael
