NATAL LIGHT HORSE S/T

[davidwyke]

I assume "NLH" does = Natal Light Horse. I understand this unit only existed for a year or so,1914-1915.

The S/T is sheet brass with the letters attached to a horizontal strip of brass, 2 copper lugs being attached to the back of this.

Cox (p.346) shows a different pattern,would they have worn two different S/T's during such a short period? Perhaps the one in cox is the issue title and mine is a locally made one? Then again, maybe another unit with the same name existed at some other time?

any info/comments much appreciated.
