Chris Dale Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 I stumbled across the New Zealand Archives last night where they have digitised many of the German documents they captured on Samoa in 1914. There's an awful lot there to go through including service files on individuals, a file on military matters, loads of trading forms- https://www.archway.archives.govt.nz/ViewRelatedEntities.do?code=6051&relatedEntity=Item But perhaps most interesting for us, a file on Medals and Orders. I'm midway through reading handwritten lists of all the overseas engagements that qualified for a Colonial Service Medal- https://www.archway.archives.govt.nz/ViewFullItem.do?code=24050353&digital=yes Cheers Chris
webr55 Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 Nice find! I have yet to look through it all, but it seems there's a lot of interesting stuff in there.
Claudius Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Thank you for bringing this to this forum's attention. I want to take some time to really look through this.
