| There are three officers who served in the Anglo-Zulu War in the photograph below. Anyone care to identify them, some of you - you know who you are - are prohibited from taking part. So the game’s afoot, enjoy! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.](John Young Collection.) JY |

| Simon,
In the glengarry, back row 2nd from the left, as you view it. That’s Lieutenant Duncan Forbes Gordon, of the 92nd (Gordon Highlanders) Regiment. He served in Afghan Campaign with the 92nd.

| I’m guessing the 57th Officer 2nd from right may have taken part in the AZW but can’t name him. The only named photo of the 57th I have found was one you posted of Maj Cecil East John and he does look a little like him?

| Phil,
That’s actually Lieutenant James Hercules FitzWaller Henry Connellan, of the 67th (South Hampshire) Regiment. I can see what mean though.

| Ah my eyesight isn’t what it used to be! Well at least the 57th and 67th are in the same regiment now (PWRR). |

| Frank,
Would that Queen become a Duchess?
Was she married a total of four times, and did she die shortly after giving death to her only child?
