Full-length studio portrait of a Sergeant with his rifle. His shoulder badge arrears to read 'Manchester' though his cap badge is reminiscent of the Military Police. Apart from a well-waxed moustache he is notable for a medal ribbon on his chest which may be that of the Egyptian Campaign of 1882-89 or more likely, India 1896.

Sgt Bill O Stephens, London House

The Exploration Tywi website (www.dyfedarchaeology.org.uk/tywi/valleyatwar.html) refers to a diary kept by Sgt W O Stephens from Llandeilo who was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal in 1915 at the Battle of Loos. This portrait shows a medal ribbon on the sergeant's chest but it does not correspond with a DCM.
