mailto:FMorley1@aol.com
My grandfather served during the Boer War. I have the following
data on my grandfather. He was a Tin Miner in Cornwall and mined gold in South
Africa. While in South Africa he served in the military during the Boer War. I have
his service medal, with three bars awarded for this service. The bars indicate his service
in South Africa, 1901; Orange Free State and Cape Colony. On the edge of the medal
the following is engraved: 25314 (must be his service number); Pte (must be his rank,
Private); F.C. Morley; O.M.S.C.
Can anyone help Mr. Morley with what O.M.S.C. means? |
