Family group to J H Labuschagne sold by DNW, September 2007. £250.

ABO (Burger J. H. Labuschagne)

Six: Lance-Sergeant J. H. Labuschagne, South African Police, late Heidelberg Commando
1914-15 Star (Pte. J. H. Labuschagne, Heidelberg Cdo.); British War Medal 1914-20 (Const. J. H. Labuschagne, 2nd M.C.); Bilingual Victory Medal 1914-19 (Pte. J. H. Labuschagne, Heidelberg Cdo.); War Medal 1939-45; Africa Service Medal 1939-45, these two officially inscribed, ‘254060 J. H. Labuschagne’; South African Police Good Service Medal, 3rd type (No. 160 Konst. J. H. Labuschagne, S.W.A.P)

Jan Harm Labuschagne, who was born at Middelburg in February 1893, served in the Heidelberg Commando from January to August 1915, prior to joining the 2nd Regiment of the Military Constabulary at the end of the same year. Transferring to the newly established S.W.A.P. at Middelburg in January 1920, he remained in the Police until his retirement as a Lance-Sergeant in February 1951, other than an appointment in 2nd Division H.Q., Union Defence Forces from November 1940 to April 1941, when he served as a driver on the Staff of Major-General I. P. de Villiers; there are several recipients of the Anglo-Boer Oorlog Medal 1899-1902 with the initials and surname ‘J. H. Labuschagne’ on the roll, but given Jan Harm’s date of birth it is improbable that he is one of them - more likely his father.
