Thank you received: 1324

No luck on his date for the Middlesex regiment at the moment.
RHA January 1899.

His discharge date records 1911.
There are medal rolls attributed to Horace reference SAC. His Kings South Africa medal is attributed to the Constabulary.

Ps. There was an entry for a H Glascock for 1895 attributed to a pension document, unfortunately no regiment specified.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.
Best regards,
Dave
