As far as the Composite Regiment are concerned, the Natal Police, Border Mounted Rifles and Natal Mounted Rifles are like gold for the medal collector, I wish I had more!

Hello Iain,
Are you suggesting that there were no members of the NP, NMR and BMR actually in the Composite Regiment?
Regards Frank
