The 17th (The Leicestershire) Regiment of Foot was in two battalions. The 1st battalion embarked for Gibraltar in 1854, fought in the Crimea, taking part in the siege of Sebastopol, and in 1856 were moved to Canada. The home depot was at Limerick in Ireland. By 1860 they were serving in Quebec; in 1861 the battalion returned home.

Each year just a handful of outstanding soldiers of the regiment were chosen for good conduct medals and gratuities: these are listed here. There were two lists, one for men recommended for the Good Conduct Medal without a gratuity, and one for gratuities - £5 to a private, £10 to a corporal, and £15 to a serjeant. Both lists are indexed here, and each gives rank, name, regimental number, date of recommendation and date of issue. (The sample scan is from the 105th foot)
