Crimea Medal with Sebastopal Clasp

[Retired1811]

This medal is engraved, " HASKER 13th Lt. Dragoon".

I also have his long service and good conduct medal that is engraved, " 1003, Ser Jt. H Hasker 3rd Dn Gds."

I assume the Gds is for Guards, but what would the Dn stand for?

I have located a roster on the internet that had the name THOMAS HASKER under the 13th Lt Dragoons.

Any websites I can hit for more info?

Thanks

Thank you. It appears I may have found this man's military history on line - when he was promoted to Sgt, he had 2 good conduct medals but would have had 4 had he not been promoted!!! He was also awarded the Turkish medal.......very inter:cheers: esting.................
