Medals to the SAC don't enjoy the same prestige and desirability of those to front-line regiments - both Imperial and Colonial - and yet, with the fact that the personnel service files are available, the collector is afforded a wealth of material in respect of each recipient.
Despite having "moved away" from collecting SAC medals (mainly for the reasons already advanced), I acquired these 2 in a recent swap with a fellow collector.
Robert Fyfe Bruce - Free State Division - Died of disease (enteric) in Boshoff on 11 November 1901.
Henry McCloy - survived the war and purchased his discharge on 28 December 1903.
There are many interesting men who served in the SAC - which members have some interesting recipients to post about?
Regards
Rory
