    Can anyone help me identify the badge on the right arm of the seated soldier please?

    There's no date on the photograph, but the soldier standing on the right is known to have been in 5/West Riding Regiment from 1914 until 1916, and then in 4/West Riding Regiment from his re-enlistment in 1917 until his demob. in 1919.

    It's the badge for Scout Sergeant and 1st class or senior scouts although possibly used as an infantry scouts badge according to Langley & Edwards 'British Army Proficiency Badges', tho' I haven't a copy to hand.
