Armed Forces / royal scots boer war reservists
« on: Sunday 13 June 10 15:48 BST (UK)  »
posted a message in february this year regarding my g granfather (robert smith cunningham 4132 royal scots)

served queens edinburgh rifle volunteer brigade 14 years
army service transport corps                                    4 years

reached rank of company company quartermaster

i think he may have been a special reservist sent to south africa in either 1900 or 1901 as he had a tattoo which may signify that south african volunteer force .

is there any who has better knowledge that could check this out and see if he was there,was on the british medal roll or had a long service award for the territorials
