Title: Boer War: Kitchener's Fighting Scouts
Post by: BlandTree on Tuesday 02 November 10 22:40 GMT (UK)

My grandfather, Trooper 1511 STUART, John, enlisted with the 1st Kitchener's Fighting Scouts, under Colenbrander, on 24th July 1901 & was honourably discharged at the end of his 'contract' on 11th February 1902.

Is there any detailed account of the actions of the KFS during this period, or any photographs of individuals or groups on men who served with KFS?
