Until the late 1960s buttons were issued in metals that needed polishing. Obviously it was not viable to remove all the buttons from a uniform on each occasion that the buttons lost their shine. (With brass that took about 24 hours). This was the way around the problem. Each Sovereign has his/her own special "mark" called a cypher. In the UK it is common to use the cypher of the reigning monarch on a General Service button. Some are shown below. Victoria Victoria (Imp Crown variation) Edward VII George V George VI Elizabeth II As well a the "cypher" buttons there were some that used the Guelphic Crown as a mark of respect to Queen Victoria's Consort, Prince Albert.

Australian Military History ... Introduction Many family historians in Australia had a Boer War soldier in their ancestry. This site is intended to guide, inform and entertain those just starting the http://members.iinet.net.au/~perthdps/military/intro.htm
Extractions: Top Australia and the Military From the outset, military history has been intermingled with the history of Australia and its European inhabitants. In fact, Australia owes its discovery to a lull in military activity in Europe. When British and European armies were not fighting each other, military leaders often found themselves on half pay, and in many instances, they were sent on exploration missions throughout the world. Just as on the battlefield, national pride dominated these ventures as the war spilled over into the competitive world of exploration. Historians are also quick to point out that new lands were not the only things at stake and that scientific conquest had also become a goal by the late 1700s. Australian's have only to recall that Captain Cook was initially sent to view an eclipse and that his discovery of New South Wales came as an added reward during his return voyage. Rivalry between France and Britain featured heavily in the British decision to occupy New South Wales in 1788. It featured again in the 1820s, when the western third of the continent was added to Britain's Empire. However, Australia's greatest involvement with the military establishment was still to come and was brought about by the American War of Independence. Until then, Britain had used America as a dumping ground for her convicts but soon after she lost that battle she had to turn her attention to the newly discovered New South Wales. A colony was established along military lines and a great proportion of its original settlers had convict or military backgrounds.
