Private James Rainey

 

 

This image is probably either James Rainey (Service No.2421 and Corps of Hussars No.71815), who enlisted with the North Irish Horse in early 1917, or James Edward Rainey (Service No.1729 and Corps of Hussars No.71525), who enlisted on 21 September 1915. The latter man was discharged as unfit for further service on 19 September 1919.
