I agree with Mark.
I agree with Mark.No diced glen,a hallmark of the A&SH.Also,if I'm not mistaken,the inner black horsehair on the hair sporran were bobbed(short black shaped bells-I think there were five-two above and three below.We also have a photo of my wife's grandfather,Sgt Archibald Harfield,from 1915,He was in the original 13th Batallion Black Watch-Royal Highlanders of Canada.The photo was taken in 1915.Comparing the photos,the hat badge is the same,although he is wearing a purse sporran,and his spats appear to be dark khaki,for field service,as compared to white ceremonial.The photo was taken in England at a photo studio,and the back is like a postcard.He was apparently on a Gas Attack course at the time.Great photo Geoff!!
