coldstream Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Keith, A bit late I'm afraid but I believe the medals represented are The Distinguished Service Order, Queens South Africa Medal with five bars and The King's South Africa Medal with the usual two bars.

muckaroon1960 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Collar badge looks similar to the Ox & Bucks Light Infantry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldstream Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Assuming his DSO was awarded for service in the Boer War he will hopefully be listed here https://www.angloboerwar.com/medals-and-awards/british/1884-distinguished-service-order You may wish to go through these looking at any Light Infantry Regiment recipients and hopefully find a match and confirm his identity.
