Thanks for the responses regarding Tpr. Oxele.
A couple of pages of the Imp Yeo records came with the medal.
Many thanks for the offer to copy them.
Cheers,

Jim

No worries Jim,

I previously uploaded 6 pages as per Trev's request. His discharge papers are also included.

Hi Dave,

I have several Steinaecker’s Horse medals, I’ll post them. Unfortunately most are broken groups and I can only hope to reunite at some stage.

Cheers,

Jim

Interested to see their pay: 8 shillings a day, rising to 9 shillings after 3 months, and an extra 1 shilling for each NCO stripe.
Can I enquire: were the regular infantry still on a shilling a day in 1900?
The past is not dead. In fact, it's not even past.
