In the next Lockdales sale is a single KSA named to 1130 Tpr W Bruce J.M.Police.

Presuming J.M.Police is the Johannesburg Mounted Police, we are used to seeing medals to the ZARPs but not on QSAs and KSAs.

Perhaps a corruption of Johannesburg District Mounted Police?

I have this one to Clover - see here www.angloboerwar.com/forum/5-medals-and-...er-war-odyssey#55441

Rory,

Yes, it could be that. There are a couple of pages of the KSA roll entitled Johannesburg District Mounted Police within the Provisional Transport Constabulary roll WO100/367. Your KSA to Constable Clover is very unusual in that regard.

This from page 68.



and this from page 69
