Miniatures groups like this one are like many of the un-named photos we see, tantalising and frustrating at the same time.

Here is a good example from the new DNW auction. If the CB was awarded fro the Boer War (a big if), this could be to one of the surgeons perhaps?

CB (Civil) Companion’s, breast badge, silver-gilt, with ribbon buckle;
The Order of St. John, silver and enamel;
Volunteer Officers’ Decoration, VR cypher;
Coronation 1902, silver;
QSA (0);
France, Third Republic, Legion of Honour, Officer, gold and enamels.

Mounted as worn.

With the VOD as well as the CB, it may be possible to identify this person,

A VRI DSO group which, given some time, should be identifiable I would have thought.
