My Dad
The man second from the right is my father, Arthur Holme.
I didn't know that his nickname in the Army was "The Bull" until the day of his funeral when I was told by Jack Strain who came to the wedding and I assume is the poster, Daniel's, grandfather.
If Daniel reads this then you can contact me on [email protected], but thanks for posting this it has made my day finding it.
