Hey Mattijs. I live in Centurion, the old Verwoerdburg area. Toronto eh? Or does the dutchboy handle conceal deeper truths?

Thanks for your reply Darrel. Heres the thing folks. Im extremely interested in Apartheid era medals and decorations. I find it really frustrating trying to get info and pics from the internet. Anybody else have that problem? I was wondering if anybody knew some sites or books that I could look into. Im looking for books with full colour illustrations. Anyway, here are some more pics, NOT from my collection, wich I got from a friend.

Danke wel Matthijs Any pictures of any SA medals will be appreciated. I am trying to build up a database for my own use and also for possibly posting on the net. Im continously frustrated by the lack of no data or poor quality pics on the net.

In addition I also have quite a few military buttons I could post if any are interested.

Last of my collection that I have a pic of. I have many more, just having a hard time photographing them and uplaoding to my computer. [attachmentid=45044] Technical Service Corps SA Army (1942-1945) The ones Im photographing I have no idea of theyre providence. As I said I picked them at fairs and the like, so Im trying to place them. Im also very anxious to hear from anybody with pictures of South African Medals, Awards and Decorations who would be willing to share some pictures of them with me for my own reference.

Hello all I'm a new member here and i was wondering if anyone else has any South African Militaria they wish to share. I also need help identifying a lot of my collection wich I picked up at fairs and flea markets from people who had no information on the pieces. I would like to know where they come from, how prolific they are, and approximate value (if any). More pic's will follow when I have finished photographing them. Thanks in advance.
