Who's with Winnie and Archie?
In this picture we see Winston Churchill seated in the centre, and to his right (our left) Archibald Sinclair. The photo is from Churchill's time commanding the 6th (Service) Battalion Royal Scots Fusiliers. Do we know the identities of any of the other officers pictured? Thank you, DuncanHill (talk) 15:39, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Thank you, much appreciated. I hadn't realised that Gibb, a future leader of the SNP had served with them. DuncanHill (talk) 22:13, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
