(x) Kenhardt Town Guard

Approximately 50 Medals were awarded to the unit in October 1905, of which 12 were returned.

Queen's South Africa 1899-1902, no clasp (31 Pte. P. P. Van Der Merwe. Kenhardt T.G.), edge nicks and loose suspension, good fine or better

P. P. Van Der Merwe and his fellow Town Guardsmen were unsuccessful in their claim for the clasp 'Cape Colony'. The Kenhardt Town Guard roll states: 'These officers, N.C.O.s & men for whom the Cape Colony clasp is claimed, served on active military duty against the enemy outside of the Town of Kenhardt'.
