From the next City Coins auction, November 2020

ABO (Burger J.M. Kock)

Jan Mattys Kock successfully applied for an ABO medal in May 1923 and listed, service at Helvetia while serving in the Johannesburg Commando. In November 1949 he put in a second (unsuccessful) application. However, this time he stated the following in the column headed “Actions” on Vorm “B”: “Helvisia on the road from Machadodorp to Lydenburg where the Lady Roberts was taken (Gun)”
