PO1 H.J.White 85.732 was entitled to "Defence of Ladysmith" clasp on his QSA. Peter Singlehurst's book "Afloat and Ashore" (ISBN 1-870192-73-7) has a good writeup of HMS Powerful's SA servicebetween 10/99 and 3/00.

Hello
I'm sorry to trouble you but I recently came across an item on the forum posted some 3 years ago with regard to an ancestor of mine, Capt. A.E Consterdine and his Lumsden Horse medal. I don't know whether you followed his military service, but he was killed in December 1916 in France aged 46, one of the oldest officers to be killed in his regiment. He is buried at Hamel Military Cemetery, Beaumont-Hamel. It is really good to know his medal from LH still exists and in good hands.
