1914-1915 Star to the Ceylon Planters Rifle Corps

The CPRC Cap Badge

While visiting the National Archives in Sri Lanka in 1996, I came across a list of names that were the members of the Ceylon Planters Rifle Corps that formed a contingent for overseas service. They were entitled to the 1914-15 Star. 

I have researched each name and plan on providing biographical details and photos (where available) for each member, along with their Medal Index card and other details. I will also provide newspaper articles about the CPRC Contingent.
