    an aside...

    BTW, as an aside, another famous member of the Liverpool Scottish Regiment in the First World War was this gentleman:



    That's Basil Rathbone, aka "Sherlock Holmes". Rathbone was an Intelligence Officer for the regiment, and was awarded the Military Cross for outstanding bravery. Reportedly he disguised himself (and I'm not making this up) as a tree to scout the German trenches and gather intelligence.

    Regards,

    Neat photo! Thanks for posting that.

    I note: no sporran, length of jacket, and position of the kilt pin.
