Looks more like a Duke of Wellington's Regiment cap badge & post-war photo . Dark blue berets weren't worn by Infantry in 1944.
could be 146 RAC , they formed from 9th Bn Duke of Wellington's. could explain cap badge & black beret.
good day fusilierdad.yesterday.01:32pm.re:dad with browning gun,india.1944.its great to have a photo of your dad,I am sorry the ciggy"s took there toll.regards bernard85
I am obliged to Owen for pointing out my dad when in India was with the 146th RAC. He was certainly in the Lancs Fusiliers in the BEF 39-40, was wounded at or near Dunkirk and hospitalised in Liverpool. He must have been transferred after recovery. This the reason for modifying the titles. I am still researching and am sure I will require assistance from the members of this excellent forum. David
