You mention that he may have been in the Army in the Black & Tans. They were not part of the Army - they were part of the Irish Constabulary during the troubles in Ireland at the beginning of the 20th century. Many of them were ex-soldiers. You will find a lot on them if you Google.

Ancestry has RIC records but nothing coming up for Reginald.
