Charles O'Reilly aka Henry Windsor Lowder

I have been trawling through some WWI war photos and found the two smaller ones which resemble my great uncle, Charles O'Reilly born in Co Louth Ireland. I am trying to confirm the identities of the Zeitoun, Egypt and Somme, France photos.



Family photo
Possibly during Boer War or Egypt....Zeitoun? 1915





Entitled: Haircut/Delousing
