Who's with Winnie and Archie? edit
In this picture we see Winston Churchill seated in the centre, and to his right (our left) Archibald Sinclair. The photo is from Churchill's time commanding the 6th (Service) Battalion Royal Scots Fusiliers. Do we know the identities of any of the other officers pictured? Thank you, DuncanHill (talk) 15:39, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
