Gentlemen,
You have got me wondering now, I must take a look at my very few cavalry, in the past I have just not bothered to look at medals like Adams with the result that I will have missed many scarce ones! :(
Regards Frank

OK you made me look.....

I went through the list of Hussars that I have in my collection and I found two people that would fall into the category, from reserve, served in a different unit, medal issued from unit served in.....

1) From 3rd Hussars, sent to 10th Hussars and medal issued off roll of 10th Hussars, served with 6th Dragoons, medal named 10th.

2) From 20th Hussars recalled from Army Reserve, served with 13th Hussars, medal issued off and named 13th.

Thanks Mike - so it seems the 15th Hussars reservists were named to the units they served with whereas the 16th Lancers chaps weren't.
