The King's South Africa Medal is a British campaign medal that was awarded to all British and Colonial military personnel who served in the Boer War in South Africa and who were in the theatre on or after 1 January 1902, and who had completed 18 months service in the conflict prior to 1 June 1902.〔(King's South Africa Medal 1901 - 02 ) (Retrieved 2015-03-14)〕 ==Institution== The second campaign medal for the Second Boer War, the King's South Africa Medal, was instituted in 1902 and was the first British campaign medal to be instituted by King Edward VII. Recipients had to have served in the theatre of war between 1 January 1902 and 31 May 1902 inclusive and completed 18 months service, not necessarily continuous, in the conflict prior to 1 June 1902. The medal recognised service in the difficult latter phases of the war and rewarded those who, by their long service in the field, had brought the campaign to a successful conclusion. The medal was never awarded singly, but was always paired with the Queen's South Africa Medal.〔〔(Veterans Affairs Canada - King's South Africa Medal )〕〔(British Commonweath War and Campaign Medals awarded to New Zealanders - The Queen's South Africa Medal ) (Retrieved 2015-03-13)〕
