I appreciate your efforts in this SAC search. I will review the info that I have from the Ancestry.com site and other info and come back to you. It is clear that the SALH appointment is 100% correct and thank you so much for the copy of the Attestation Form relating to my GF William CROFT. being appointment to the SALH. If my memory serves me correctly, Green Point was (or maybe still is) a Military Base in Capetown ? It is years since I was last in that fair City. Thank you again for your most excellent research. Regards, Peter C. B. (Grandfather)

Only a temporary military base during the ABW (mostly a PoW camp), and parts of the common were also used during the two world wars. Fort Wynyard (a coast artillery battery) is the only permanent military installation
