Medal roll for medals and clasps issued in India. *General Service Medals 1920-1935. Should include include Clasps Iraq 1919-1920, Kurdistan 1919 and 1923, North West Persia 1920 and South Persia 1918-1919. Regarding the issue of medals, a post on the ''Great War Forum'' advises that for the General Service Medal, bars 'Kurdistan', 'Iraq', 'N.W. Persia' and the India General Service Medal particularly bar 'Waziristan 1919-21', the medal rolls reflect only those men who had previously applied for a medal, and if there had been no application by a soldier, his name does not appear on the medal roll.<ref> mcassell [https://www.greatwarforum.org/topic/280998-19th-motor-machine-gun-battery-in-india-1918-and-1919/?do=findComment&comment=3087942 19th Motor Machine Gun Battery in India 1918 and 1919] ''Great War Forum'' 22 January 2022.

:'''Note''': The WO 329 medal rolls available at the National Archives appear to only contain some of the medal entitlements for soldiers in the Indian Army. It appears that some of the medals may have been issued in India but although the the British Library appears to have a medal roll for the 1914-1915 Star, it is unclear what rolls for other medals are available. Refer "British Library records" below.
:The medal rolls are available on the pay site Ancestry. Transcriptions are available on the pay website Findmypast. Transcription of some/all of the WO 329 medal rolls are available on the pay site "Naval and Military Archive". See [[Medal Rolls#External links| External links below]].
