Hello

I am trying to track down the owner(s) of two medals to this soldier which have been sold by DNW in recent years:

QSA Cpl 2508 FC Newton BSAP
Victory Medal Pte Brand's Free State Rifles

DNW have sent a message to the buyer(s) but I've not heard anything.

These two medals were part of the full group in 1976, there may be a BSAC medal to this man as well.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Meurig,

Good luck with your enquiry. I am fortunate to be the custodian of a QSA & KSA to CW Newton BSAP. What would be the chance that they are related?

Cheers,

Jim

Hello

Thanks - no joy yet! It is certainly possible, I haven't got any service papers for FC Newton yet, so I don't know his biographical details yet.

Do you have any bio details for CW?

Hi Meurig,

I don't have any details on CW Newton. The medals have been in my posession for a few years now so I should look again.
The QSA has Rhod,RoM,OFS & Trans clasps.

Cheers,

Jim
