Nice circa 1910s Scottish photo of a military guy in kilt. The family, and many photos in the estate, were from Dundee. How would you describe this guy? Click to expand...

Probably 1916 or onwards?He's wearing the khaki protective apron over the regular kilt, theres kind of a flap pocket where the sporran would usually be worn.Highland regiments would also wear decorative tops on te socks in the regimental colours, he's wearing plain ones.The cutaway round front to the jacket is also distinct for the Scottish regiments from 1902, all the others were square cut but the Scots couldnt always get them so theyre a bit mix and match.The Balmoral hat is mostly pre-1915 when they went over o the bigger tam-o-shanters and then steel helmets. The jackets also kind of sloppy and badly cut which suggests either wartime service or a private sodier, on the other hand he's obviously holding an officers swagger stick behind his back but he doesnt have any obviouse officers rank badges?The leather belt is old issue, they should have been withdrawn for fabric belts but again supply lagged so it could be either.I couldnt guess at the regiment but how about a senior NCO or warrant officer rather than a commissioned officer?
