Hello all;

Does anybody recognise this uniform as being associated with The Second Boer War?

The cap-badge appears to be a bent, gauntleted arm holding an axe mounted on laurel leaves.

Could it be a Pioneer Corps maybe?

Many thanks in advance...

Cheers;

Lee

Hello Mike;

Thanks for your response... sadly we're not surprised by your comment about this not being a military uniform!

We are having a real hard time identifying what it is... and our 'link' to the Boer War was admittedly a remote one; although others in this man's place of birth did see service in SA at the time...

Thanks again;

Cheers;

Lee
