Summary

[edit]
Description The Queen's South Africa Medal. All members of British or colonial forces who served in South Africa during the actual period of hostilities, 11 October 1899 to 31 May 1902, qualified for the Queen's South Africa Medal. Twenty-six bars were issued to denote participation in particular battles or campaigns. Approximately 178,000 Queen's South Africa Medals were issued, including 3 802 to those serving in Canadian units. These units collectively qualified for 16 bars, though few Canadians earned more than five.
