 Hi Selegend

Welcome to the forum.
They are great photo's, may I ask if they are yours as we have seen them before and to know more details about the men in the photos would be great.

Link to the photos on the manchester regt re-enactors site

If you need help with any research with your great Grandfather post his name and we can try and help.
