It looks actually like a British (Australian?) naval officer being piped aboard and greeted by the ship's officers. Note the cap badge and salute.

KenjiB_48 Hmmm, we'll pass this on to our Navy history curator to double check, thanks for your comment KenjiB_48.

Appears to be an army officer and definitely not US - the Commonwealth navies salute in a similar fashion to the Americans - not palm forward. Possibly an army Lieutenant-Colonel - looks to be a crown with single pip on his shoulder boards.

KenjiB_48 Jeremy Davis Hi all, thanks for all your clues, after a bit of research we have identified the man as Lieutenant-Colonel Percy Muir McFarlane who was acting Base Commandant at Victoria Barracks in Paddington, Sydney at the time. See articles here and here for more info. It seems McFarlane had quite a distinguished military career, serving in the Boer War and both World Wars!
