    A few South African medals. Where there is just ribbon it indicates a missing medal. Sorry for the rubbishy picture, my SLR's battery is dead.

    Without going into too much detail, from left to right:

    Top Row: 11th South African Infantry and SA Artillery, 9th and 7th South African Infantry & SA Air Force, then the last 3 are all SA Air Force.

    Middle Row: SAAF, Technical Service Corps, Cape corps (Guy was taken POW at Tobruk), Not sure of the last group.

    Bottom: Natal Mounted Rifles (Present at El Alamein & POW), SA Heavy Artillery (POW), SA Irish Regiment. Then the two Singles Vic is to 1st South African Infantry and the War medal is to the Imperial Mounted Infantry died in Rome 1945.

    Really nice haul, what you have there! I know one more interesting SA Vic, what is in Dublin, so you can talk about it, with the owner, on Saturday.

    Talk you soon,
