    beachcomber australia Unlikely, then again you've probably never experienced and Irish summer? I imagine that in winter they would have been wearing greatcoats?

    The NLI is always amazing! Mr French revisited when the trees were bigger, had leaves, and there was a King Edward VII letterbox on the corner. And it was 11:00. catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000332062 Spot the differences!

Waiting at the barracks door - the Waterford Militia

    As I recall from comments at the image below, the helmet with a ball on top is Artillery. There was an Artillery Barracks in Waterford (now gone) and in this 25" map, I see a passage with steps which matches, at the NE side of the Eastern corner of the barracks buildings, at the spot now occupied by St. Carthage's Avenue.

    E.F. Fraser? = Edward Francis Frazer!

    This has to before 1922, and probably before 1914, too.

    Stripped button down collar shirt, very cool.
  • Rory Sherlock said:
    Could they belong to the Royal Munster Fusiliers? The ball-and-flame collar badge on both uniforms is very like that of the RMF (and also like that of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and that of the Grenadier Guards)... They're like the one used by the Royal Artillery too, but they lack the 'UBIQUE' banner at the base.
  • Rory Sherlock said:
    No... having looked at the buttons and helmet more closely, they clearly belong to the Royal Artillery

    From the NLI notes - 1st Battalion, 62nd (Wiltshire) Regiment at their Ferozeshah Day Parade, in the Royal Barracks, Dublin, 1921. Ferozeshah Day was an annual commemoration for the regiment who took part in the in the Battle of Ferozeshah 21/22nd December 1845 during the First Sikh War in Northern India.

    If it is December, there should be lots of long shadows. And closed barrack windows. Hmm ...
