Includes the Medal Rolls of the British Army and Royal Air Force are published for all officer entitlements, all multi-clasp recipients, and all personnel of units present in less than battalion strength - in all, a total of more than 14,000 names (civilians included). Recipients of single-clasp medals who served with regiments and units present in full strength are not included, partly because of the sheer volume of names and partly because verification of these medals on the original rolls is not so complex. The many difficulties of using the original rolls and on-line versions are explained in the Introduction. Hence the published rolls in this book make it straightforward for collectors and military historians to check officer, multi-clasp and 'odd men' entitlements to the India General Service Medal 1908-1935. The degree of rarity of medals for any given campaign clasp(s) to individual regiments or units (including the Royal Air Force) is specified. In addition, this volume includes: Rolls of Honour for the British Establishment; Orders of Battle for the British and Indian Establishments with the names of Commanding Officers; and many previously unpublished photographs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This medal, sanctioned in 1846, was the first campaign award issued to all ranks with clasps, although clasps had been awarded on the Gold Crosses and Medals issued to officers for the peninsular Wars.The basic design of this medal set a precedent in campaign awards that has been generally adhered to ever since.Another unusual facet to this medal is that the name of the first battle at which the recipient was present is found at the bottom of the reverse; thus medals with one clasp are found to recipients who were at two actions, and so on.Those who were at all four battles for which clasps were awarded could only receive three clasps, and no clasp was issued for Moodkee , it being the first battle of the campaign.The 1845-46 Sikh War was a difficult one, as theSikh army was well-trained and armed.As a result, British Casualties at the four actions were heavy.However, the campaign was short and concentrated,lasting only three months, and the Sikhs returned for a further conflict with the British two years later (see Punjab Medal 1848-49). The medal is found named in two main styles; to British troops, in thin, upright impressed capitals, a rather distinctive style notable for the use of colons instead of full stops; and to Indian troops in engraved running script.The list of casualties have been compiled from the Sutlej Medal Rolls held at the India Office Library. The list is by regiments and gives the nature of the casualty, date and battle in which incurred: Moodkee, Ferozeshuhur, Aliwal or Sobraon. Those invalided home are also identified.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This medal, sanctioned in 1847 and issued in 1848, was awarded for services during the Napoleonic Wars 1801-14.It had been planned to award the medal for battles and campaigns as far back as 1793, but such was the time lapse that very few claimants would have come forward, and therefore the first clasp awarded was that for Egypt , for the campaign of 1801.Some 25,000 medals were issued with an almost infinite variety of the 29 clasps issued, the maximum on one medal being fifteen.The great variety of clasps and regiments found on this medal make it one of the most interesting of all campaign awards.The time lapse between the actual battles and the issue of the medal meant that only a small number of survivors from each regiment lived to receive the award.In addition, there were survivors who did not know about or could not claim the medal. Most of the clasps were awarded for service during the Peninsular War of 1811-14, although six clasps were issued for the Peninsula War of 1808-09.In addition, there were three clasps for services in Canada, two for services in the West Indies, and one each for Egypt (1801), Maida (Southern Italy 1806), and Java (1811).The obverse is the usual Wyon head of Victoria, with the date 1848 at the foot, whilst the reverse depicts Victoria placing a laurel wreath on Wellington as he kneels before her; there is also an inscription, and the British Lion is represented.The clasps were struck in groups of three where applicable, and then riveted together.The suspension is by a straight, swivelling suspension.The naming is always in impressed Roman capitals.There are too many rarities to detail both in terms of the clasps and the regiments, but it should be borne in mind that only about 10% of those who fought in these battles and campaigns lived to receive the medal, and that, when the number that have been lost, destroyed or placed in museums is taken into acount, this medal can be described as scarce and a considerable number of issues as rare.
