TOPIC:

In the book "Ashes & Blood" published by the National Army Museum (that includes photo's/details of much of their collection) is on page 400/401 the group to 2599 Trooper W Guest of C Squadron 5th New Zealand Regiment and later as part of 10th NZ contingent. This 10th contingent had 31 men who had previously seved and arrived in Durban in May 1902 (and left 2 months later as war was over).

His QSA has 6 non battle bars CC/Rhod/OFS/Tvl/1901/1902.

Thanks Jon, That's a great example.

Good Morning Jon......

Thanks for the photo and information that is the first that I have ever seen.....

So they do exist.....

I have recorded 27 examples to the IY (17), Scottish Horse (2), 7th Hussars (3), Rhodesian Rgt, Southern Rhodesian Volunteers, Commander-in-Chiefs Bodyguard and Victorian Bushmen (2).

There will be more.

As this is an unusual combination I would check the KSA roll, because certainly with the IY many men were entered on the QSA Extra Clasp roll for SA01 & SA02 and then appear correctly on the KSA roll. In this situation it is entirely possible for the QSA to be issued (affixed) with SA01 & SA02 and the KSA not to have reached the recipient.
