Hi Misershoard, nice cards Yes, they are definately the North Devon Hussars. I collect postcards & insignia to them (living in North Devon myself). They were in Clacton on east coast guard duty before being posted to Galipolli. They had a busy war for Yeomanry. After Galipolli they served in the Suez area & then went on to fight to fight in Palistine & France & Flanders (as the 16th Devons (Yeo. Battalion)).
If you decide to move them on I'd be pleased to add them to my collection.
Cheers,
Richard.
