Congratulations, Mike! You can't go wrong with QSA's from the Natal campaign.

I agree with Brett, the fghting in Natal was just so intense, I do like your 5th Lancer in particular, though, I often feel that people attach a special significance to this regt, that I don't think it deserved, moreover, it reflects in the awful prices now being asked for these medals.
I wonder if he took part in the early evening pursuit on the 21st of October, many people just assume this, but, there was a second squadron present, unlike the 5th Dragoon Guards.
Interestingly, Green is on their supplementary roll in WO100/115 and is entitled to a Cape Colony clasp, moreover, his transfer to the reserve is also clearly shown too.

Mike,

I find myself agreeing with everything that has gone before on these new medals.

What a year you have had! Will this year's resolution be for more of the same next year?

Best wishes
