On the off chance that anyone is interested in the opening stages of the war in German South West Africa in 1914, or if anyone has medals to the South African Mounted Rifles or Transvaal Horse Artillery, a look at the casualty list here may be of interest. If you have any medals to anyone who was present at Sandfontein i am sure this will be of interest.

Still to come are some photos, medals and maps, but for the time being, here is the bare bones info.

Chris, Thanks for this . I am interested in the GSWA campaign but only peripherally. I ahve just found very intersting and helpful a recent article on the SA Mil History website.
