British War Medal 1914-20 (Nurse M. de Beer.) good very fine £40-£50

May de Beer, of Parktown, Johannesburg, volunteered as a Probationer Nurse in the South African Military Nursing Service on 12 January 1916, and served in the Great War overseas from 4 March 1918 to 14 July 1919. She was demobilised on 14 July 1919. Her overseas service is believed to have been exclusively in the U.K., and consequently she was not entitled to the Victory Medal.

Sold with copied Discharge Certificate.
