It is possibly the Manchester Regiment, but don't quote me on that.

Thanks. I was wondering what that badge was. Was it an offical badge? What would he have had to do in order to qualify for wearing that badge?

Thanks,

I would agree Manchesters. Am am pretty sure the badge is also a farriers.

There are 4 Dents listed in the Pals Battalions book of honour

assuming 'jock' was a nickname, it could be any of them, and if it wasn't....none

Who were the Dents that were listed? I'm pretty sure that Jock was a nickname.

Thanks

Hi

If you search the on-line medal index cards using the surname Dent plus Manchester Regiment there are 11 names that come up, although one of these names , Cecil, I think is for an swb card and a medal card.
