A photograph of a British soldier's family || Two young girls and their parents apparently posed in a garden for this photograph, which is printed on a postcard. No information is given that might help us to identify the location or the family’s name, the only potential clue being the ‘A? B5’ written by hand in the bottom-right-hand corner of the photograph. The three stripes on each of his sleeves, and his distinctive cap badge, tell us that the soldier–father of the family is a sergeant serving in the Corps of Royal Engineers. || || Photograph || A photograph of a British sergeant's family
