Marcon1 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Hi, I need more info about this medal. It's a South African medal (City of Cape Town) 'Law Enforcement Civic Amenities' . Is this a police medal or something else ? Which city department issued this medal ? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur R Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I don't know for certain, but I would imagine that this medal was awarded to the "beach constables" who used to enforce the city regulations on the beaches, and that it was probably a long service medal. The city fire brigade and traffic police also have/had long service medals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcon1 Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 (edited) Thanks Arthur for your reply. I know about the fire and police medals. Note absence and presence of Protea flower on back of suspender, also SILVER marked. Clear Protea flower on suspender and fully hallmarked. 3 different types of long service medals. 150 years Fire Brigade anniversary Medal.
