could it be that he left the police to join the army in June 1916 and was wearing his army coat and cap?

I wondered about that, but this cap:

does look pretty similar.
The coat looks a bit plain for police (specials?) uniform, and I thought the armlet was usually worn just above the wrist rather that at bicep level, but I'm not certain.
