I collect primarily QSAs to Indian Recipients.

I wonder if any of these men served in South Africa?

I have on my roll, three Burma Mounted Infantry recipients ( all Veterinary Assistants) & a Hospital Assistant from the Burma S&TC so I guess the answer is no. There was one bronze medal at City Coins in 2017 (ex Glendings 1984) to a sweeper which I passed on - the roll is missing. I have logged only 2 entitlements to the Egypt & Sudan Medal & one Afghanistan (with clasps Kabul/Charasia )
