Named red frock to Major Orr of the Welsh Regiment dating to circa 1909.  He served through WWI being shot in the head at one stage and recovered to return to the front, he served post was at the Military academy and was commander of 2/Welsh in the late 1920's.

 

i have managed to find out a very full history for him, including an actual post card from him as well as online descriptions of his wounding, his wedding and lots of other information.
