Natal Hussars

Raised by Major Eastwood in 1863, the N.H. was amalgamated with the Greytown Mounted Rifles in the same year. Even so, the overall strength of the contingent employed in the Zulu War of 1879, when it accompanied the Southern Force under Colonel Pearson, remained minimal.

40 Medals were awarded to the Natal Hussars, all of them with the '1879' clasp.

South Africa 1877-79, 1 clasp, 1879 (Tr. De Waal. Natal Husrs.), post a little bent, very fine
