General notes

It has been suggested by a researcher that the officer in the front row (with a soldier seated on the ground immediately in front of him is Michael Henry Downey (compare this with PRG 280/1/18/84). In the large group photo the soldier fourth to Downey's right is possibly the same man as seen in the back right of PRG 280/1/18/84.
