Help with L/11784 Pte B Kane 5th R. I. Lcrs

[Squaddie994]

I can't find his Mic for his 14/15 star, also the medal is named R.R. Pte B Kane. 5th R. I. Lcrs. What does the R.R stand for?

Thanks.

Mick.

It may be worth showing a photo of the engraving on the medal. Can only find roll records for British War and Victory Medals for Bernard,

Mick,

 'R.R.' probably means 'Rough Rider', who would help to break in new horses.

Looking at some 5th Lancers for which records exist casts a doubt in my mind about his entitlement to the Star. For example L/11403 reported for duty on 20/12/1915. Jury out but would like to see the engraving

Thanks for the replies everyone. I'll try and take a photo of the naming but I'm not the most computer literate person. His BWM is also named that way, unfortunately I'm missing his Victory medal.

Thanks.

Does the standard of the engraving differ markedly? An alternative for RR is Reserve Regiment.

I wasn't happy with the engraving on the star, so returned it.

Thanks everyone for your help.

Mick.
