Mike,

Wouldn't it be nice if he turned out to be so. What is the unit on his BSAC Medal?

Hello Mike,
I assume you are talking about Arthur Richardson? if so then no he did not, if memory serves the only Richardson to so do, was Horace Richardson, who served in C Troop of Dr Jameson's force.

I have a list somewhere but I don't know who created it. There are books with lists in them but I don't have any. PM me your address and I will send it to you.
