Dear Adrian

Its a pleasure. I am looking for one group with Queens, 2 American spanish war medals and and Imperial service medal at the end. what makes this fun is that he was British Army, took his discharge went to USA got caught up in the war there and then was recalled to the colours for the Boer war.

I just need to find where I put it

Kind regards

Munroe

Dear All

this is interesting because he has everything South African since the Zulu war to WW1.

This is Major Knott, the man that was responsible for cutting of Bambata's head with the regimental doctor. He served in the annexation of the Transvaal, was in the party with the recovery of the body of the Prince Imperial.

Enjoy

That has to be quite uncommon Munroe with the inclusion of the Order of St John?
