Description
A section of an exhibit in the special Boer War Exhibition held in the Australian War Memorial to mark the 75th anniversary of the Boer War, showing a signed portrait photograph of Nursing Sister Edith L Marsh and medals which were presented to her for service during the war. These items were on loan to the Australian War Memorial for the occasion. The medals awarded to nurses are notable in as much as they were awarded without clasps.
