Notes | Queen's South Africa Medal 1899-1902 Medal awarded to 8591 Sergt. James Ingram Osmond, 1st Regt. 10th Contingent New Zealand Mounted Rifles The New Zealand the first Queen's South Africa medals were handed out in June 1901 - in a ceremony at Potter's Park, Auckland, returned troopers received their medals from the Duke of Cornwall and York, the future King George V. On the same day in England, King Edward VII handed out 3,000 medals at a rate of twenty eight a minute. "When the march past concluded, the presentation of medals by the Duke to returned troopers of New Zealand Contingents in South Africa took place. A table draped with a Union Jack was carried out to the saluting-point, and the Duke and staff dismounted and took up their positions behind it. The company of returned troopers was then marched up. As each man came forward and saluted the Duke of Roxburgh he handed the medal to the Duke, who handed it to the soldier who saluted again and rejoined his company." See- Evening Post, Volume LXI, Issue 138, 13 June 1901, Page 5, and 14 June 1901, Page 5 (Papers Past) James Ingram Osmond, Stationer of Auckland, had served as a volunteer with the No 2 Native Rifles (Auckland) for five years prior to his brief South African service. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
