Neville_C Offline Administrator Posts: 1573 Thank you received: 2403	Rob, I think it might be the 1st (City of London) Battalion, London Regiment (Royal Fusiliers). LD (or L’D) being an abbreviation for London. Some of these men saw action in South Africa as part of a composite volunteer active service company, composed of members of the 1st, 2nd & 3rd VB’s Royal Fusiliers. SEE: Enfield-Stuff Neville

It's on a rifle: IY Gr 404 The past is not dead. In fact, it's not even past. The following user(s) said Thank You: Neville_C
