long service medals

Postby Martin » Fri Dec 11, 2009 9:13 pm

Having read the page on long service medals I was wondering if my Grandfather Sgt Harry Allen 5958 who completed 21 years service would have recieved one? as we dont have one with his other medals.
Or have I missed something?

Martin,

The LSGC Medal list on this website only currently covers those issued between the period 1902 to 1919.

Hello Louis,
Thankyou for your reply.
As my Grandfather served between 1900 and 1921 I thought he might be included in the list.
Do the Regiment archives hold records of everyone with a LSGC Medal.

Is there any reason he would not have been awarded one after 21 years continuous service or are there other qualifying elements.
