OCR, quite right. Lt. Colonel. Going on his medal ribbons, which sadly I can't identify, he has been around a bit! I think its more like, "cometh the hour, cometh the man" type of thing where in a war, the man was far more important and useful than the uniform regulations. There are many examples of this in the British Forces. Field Marshal Montgomery's beret with two badges is a prime example.
