Hot on the heels of my recent post regarding the re-unite to Cahill, I was given a late Christmas present in the form of another re-unite on Christmas Eve.

On this occasion grateful thanks go to Sapper97 who alerted me to a WWI trio of medals on an online auction in South Africa to a Captain A.H. Du Preez of the Pieterburg Commando.



This is none other than the medals to Adriaan Hendrik Coetzee whose Anglo Boer War medal I acquired some years ago, along with his Lint Voor Wonden. See here www.angloboerwar.com/forum/5-medals-and-...sberg-commando#88683

The medal bar for these medals can be seen in the photo of the trio appended below. The medals are still to be posted to me but what a great result - two re-unites in two weeks. They say things happen in three's so here's hoping for another before New Year.





Regards

Rory

Du Preez's WWI trio to a Captain in the Pietersburg Commando have finally reached me. This is what the complete group looks like.

Love the reunited group, what a privilege to make this happen! Sapper97 also credit for actually seeing the item and letting Rory know. Superb example of how this hobby can operate!
