A Puzzle from Pieta Military Cemetery. How does one reconcile the badge of the Queen Alexandra Imperial Military Nursing Service with an infantry man of the Buffs East Kent Regt?

Extended Description
Odd inscription. Either the carver ran out of stone and just added the name of the deceased to the first available one or got the badge wrong. But an infantry soldier and a badge of a non combatant organisation somehow do not make sense.

This was reported to CWGC some time ago. Awaiting correction. I will be back in Malta later this year and will check if it has been corrected, if not, will have a chat with the Supervisor over there to get the matter raised again.
