Footnote: George Dyer is present on the Indian Mutiny Medal Roll. His service number was 1145.

The 6th Dragoon Guards (Carabiniers) were deployed to India during the later stages of the Indian Mutiny (1857–1858) to support British efforts in suppressing the widespread rebellion against colonial rule. Arriving in 1858, the regiment was primarily engaged in pacification duties, escort operations, and the restoration of order in the North-Western Provinces. Though they arrived after the major sieges and battles, their presence contributed to consolidating British control during the final phases of the conflict and the transition to direct Crown rule in India.
