    This is my Great Uncle Harry Wilkins. Is anyone able to identify his Regiment from his uniform? The photograph on the right was taken in 1942.

    I previously made an application for his Service record but they were unable to find the record. I have subsequently learned that the date of birth I gave (from his death certificate) was incorrect. Also, the service number I quoted may also have not been correct. I believe I now have his correct date of birth, so intend to reapply (without the service number). I would be grateful for any extra information that can be gleaned from the photographs as I can add this to the application.

    Thanking you in advance.
