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.
  • John A. Coffey said:
    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

    What about the tartan 'trews?
  • derangedlemur said:
    The tartan trousers makes them lowlanders. Highlanders all had kilts. Hat man appears to be antipodean - I don't think anyone else got a slouch hat. He also appears to be wearing cavalry trousers. Puttees were gone by 1940.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Are you sure it's not just some gang of lads living rough and dressed in army surplus?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    derangedlemur If you look at the linked set, you'll see a load of tents and horses, all military style.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    derangedlemur Very sure! Have a look at the other photos in the series, especially this one which looks like a cavalry detachment.
