Description
Queen’s South Africa, 2 bars, South Africa 1901, South Africa 1902, 5348 Drummer H. Clarke, The King’s Own Regiment (Lancaster).
Officially impressed: “5348 Dmr H. Clarke. Rl: Lanc: Regt”.
Observe polished, as expected from an Army Musician.
Entitlement confirmed on the medal roll, being unusually entitled to the QSA and only these 2 date clasps, no KSA earned.
The medal roll with the clasp, noted him as at the time a Lance Corporal, and having previously claimed the QSA with the 2nd Bn Royal Lancs, at that he was likely a Drummer.
Drummer Clarke served during the Boer War with the 2nd Battalion The Kings Own Royal Lancaster Regiment.
