My Medal Collecting Son has a habit of buying medal discs, sans suspensions and clasps, and asking me to " find out something ". Here is another one.

Other than P. Fortune is on the Roll for the 1st KFS and appeared to be given SOUTH AFRICA 1901 as the only clasp, that is it.
Any additional information would be welcome.
Thanks, James

Thank You Rory, Frank and Muerig, Your information is very helpful. I did go to the WO100's today and copied out the entitlement. Now to do some restoration. The medal will eventually sport the four Clasps.
