Could anyone help me identify the badge worn by the soldier in the attached photograph. He became 21212 Sgt A. Duddield of the 9th Battalion, King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry. He was KIA on 16 September 1916.
Many thanks, Terry Marker

Looks like it's "MG" in a wreath.
I cannot make out if it is MG - Machine Gunner or LG - Lewis Gunner.
