Soldier Scan For Lil' Sis

My Little Sister is an accomplished genealogist , which almost excuses her for being the Black Sheep of our family and being a librarian -yeah I know...FOR SHAME, GIRL, FOR SHAME! She asked me, her Eldest Bro who is dying of an infected tooth right now and not really in the mood to do such things, to blow up an old B+W contact print sized photo to show the soldier's cap badge and then ask around if anyone recognizes it as , I am told, british army cap badges are a doctoral thesis waiting to happen.

I scanned the photo in at insane-level dpi and cropped the resulting 20mb jpg down to the target area cos a 20mb would take a week to load here.
