Hi Linneyl,

Following on from your original thread here is another example of "upside down" naming on a QSA:



860 Cpl HJ Graham, Imperial Light Infantry

According to the rolls the medal was issued in 1902.

Good to see another of these little anomalies! Mine gets a little lonely at times.

And they still crop up very occasionally! Your example makes five. Perhaps best termed "a minor rarity"?
Well done!
