LIEUTENANT PERCY EDWARD HENDERSON: COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF'S BODYGUARD



Impressed naming to the above mentioned officer of the Bodyguard.

Perhaps junior officers' medals were not engraved as shown in the example to Major Reginald Mainwaring of the same regiment?
Henderson's QSA was not issued untill 02/02/1906, probably because he had returned to India or had gone on his travels as a writer. Maybe that is why it was impressed rather than engraved?
