Private Robert Johnston

Two pictures of North Irish Horseman Private Robert Johnston. It is believed that Johnston was a batman during the War and that in the second picture he is holding his officer's horse. The only Robert Johnston in the North Irish Horse discovered to date was Service No.1789, enlisting in late 1915. He served in the 2nd Regiment in France, later transferring with the Regiment to the 9th Battalion Royal Irish Fusiliers (No. 41454).
