Africa General Service 1902-56, 1 clasp, B.C.A. 1899-1900 (2610 Sepoy Suchia Singh, 28th Bombay Prns.) contact marks and edge bruising, about very fine £80-100

A positive roll call of Indian Army units made up the strength of the Central Africa Rifles during the operations of 1899-1900, but very few of them were in Battalion strength. The majority were, in fact, attached as small details, perhaps numbering around a dozen or so men.
