[Ralph A]

Couple of Tommy Atkinses, fighting for King and Country :

Africa and 39-45 Star: C301539 A. Hendricks.
Italy Star: 189994 H. Huyssteen.

A new home for some old soldiers.

Guard of Honor

Stars acquired from Frank Scheepers. Thanks, Frank!

Very nice, Ralph and the display really works for me!

I'm assuming you know that they're medals to South Africans? Hendricks was a member of the South Africa Coloured Corps aka the Cape Corps as many people of mixed-decent lived in the Western Cape (this is denoted by the prefix C in front of his service number). Huyssteen would have been a caucasian volunteer as he has no prefix.

That's marvelous!

Thanks for the info.

Nice little setup Ralph! The look good flanked by their "guards"

Geoff's quite right about their origins. Have you checked to see on off chance that they were fatal casualties?

Cheers,

Adam
