Not for me - broken group.

I am guessing the person who bought his KSA is not after the QSA.

I know who has the KSA (Named Canadian Scouts) and they are not interested in selling or buying the QSA......

No it's not me.....

Couple of questions:

1. Is it known or estimated how many Raised Date QSAs were minted?

2. Sgt 387 TF Miller, Strathcona's Horse - where did this medal surface? As is known he is not on the medal roll or any military records I can access. Can we hazard a guess who he might be and where his medal was obtained?
