Good Morning Everyone.....

I just picked up the following King's Medal......
He is not listed in FMP which I subscribe to.......
Is he on Ancestry or does anyone have a record for this regiment.....
Would like to find out what QSA bars he would have been entitled to.......

The KSA is a much maligned medal as people will not buy them without the Queen's in a lot of cases and it looked so lonely in an antiques stores case....... Also it cost me less than 20 Pounds in trade...... Mike Life Member Past-President Calgary Military Historical Society O.M.R.S. 1591
