A quick search of the rolls shows 892 Trooper A. C. Clarke in British South Africa Police with QSA entitlement of a single clasp Rhodesia..
KSA entitlement confirmed on SH roll.
Yes, that would be a very nice reunite.
I shall watch this morning's proceedings at Spink with interest!

Jim,

His IY papers are available, under the name Oxle. Do you have these?

I cannot see his QSA anywhere as Oxle or Oxele.
