This corporal's
regiment can be determined by the regimental Arm Badge he is
wearing above his rank stripes, an oval shield displaying the
Regimental Prussian Eagle.
This kind
of arm badge is often called "Sergeant Arm Badge", as it
was usually worn by NCOs from the rank of sergeant on - two
notable exceptions being the 14th and 19th
Hussars.
Our man
is also wearing a Long Service and Good Conduct stripe (shifted
from the right to the left sleeve c. 1880) and a badge indicating
his Drill Instructor specialty.
