Photograph of Harold Green in uniform.Studio photograph of Harold Green belonging to Mrs. Majorie Calvert of Northowram. The 'cannon' cap badge shows that Harold was serving in the Royal Artillery. The white lanyard on the left shoulder also demonstrated this. Harold's uniform shows that he was serving in the more mobile horse-drawn elements of the Artillery, namely the Royal Horse Artillery (RHA) or Royal Field Artillery (RFA), for he is wearing breeches, spurs and is carrying his rifle ammunition in a bandolier across his chest.
