Can anyone help with the service record of this fellow:
Gunner J H Newall, 102237, R.A., Victory Medal and War Medal.
He also got the South Africa Medal (with 'Cape Colony', 'Orange Free State', 'Transvaal', and S Africa 1901' bars) as 26329 Pte Imp Yeo.
Looks like he changed regiments?!

26329 Private Joseph Newall, 34th Company, 11th Battalion, Imperial Yeomanry.

IY papers are also at Kew and give much the same info as Regular Army papers.
