Good Morning Everyone......

Rec'd a W.W.1 trio in the mail and now have been able to re-unite them with the QSA awarded to the same man......
Only my 2nd re-unite in the years that I have been collecting.....

Q.S.A.
Private A. Cooley, C.C. Forces (D Squadron), Cape Colony, South Africa 1902

Re-united with or I should say the other way around as I had the QSA first.....

1914-15 Star
Rifleman A. Cooley, 1st South African Mounted Rifles
War Medal / Inter-Allied Victory Medal
Lance-Corporal A. Cooley, 1st South African Mounted Rifles

Are the South African WW1 documents available, hopefully on line????

Very nice Mike - now for the good news...

SAMR chaps have extensive files of their very own - far more comprehensive than the run of the mill stuff.

Regards

Rory

Any reunited group must be a good one, I'd be surprised if any of his papers were actually on line, it's a case of sending someone to Kew and Pretoria.
