Great Photo. I thought we would only ever find sketches drawn by artists sent to South Africa like this one of the Coldstream Guards charging at Diamond Hill.
My Great Uncle, William Grant, brother of my Dad's mother was in the Coldsteam Guards and his record shows the same up and down progress, e.g. G.C pay then Forfeit G.C. pay, but it was the small entries that gave me quite a shock. When he came out, he went on to the reserve and before long was called back and sent to South Africa. The battles he was in, including Diamond Hill are all listed there in his record, along with his medals.
