GrahamC Posted 26 June , 2009 Share Posted 26 June , 2009 My wife's grandfather served with the RHA in the Indian Army and his MIC states a clasp of M526/23 or 826/23. If someone advise me as to what this was for I would be most grateful Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
