Hello. My great grandfathers Queen medal has come into my possession and I was wondering if anyone would be able to shed any light on his involvement in the Boer war. From what I understand he was an engineer by trade who was constantly moving to and fro between South Africa & Liverpool. The medal inscription suggests he was in the SRV but that is all the information I have. The medal has no ribbon or bars. Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to offer any insight, Thanks, Stuart

Welcome to the forum.....

Can you please tell us all that is written on the edge of the medal....

It is as I put in the subject line PTE F J Phenna S.R.V.(The F J stood for Frederick Jones). The only part I am not totally 100% sure about is the PTE as the TE is a little worn
