Offered is an India General Service Medal (1909) with clasp AFGHANISTAN N.W.F. 1919, impressed named 2/LT. R. THORNLEY I.A.R.O. 2/41 DOGRAS.
The 41st Dogras were an infantry regiment of the British Indian Army and were raised as the 41st (Dogra) Bengal Infantry in 1900. In World War I they served on the Western Front and in the Mesopotamia Campaign. There was a second battalion raised in 1917 and it was with this Battalion the 2/41st that 2nd Lieutenant Thornley served. A search of the Indian Army lists should show further light on Lt Thornley’s service.
