Description: ID'd Grouping of New York State Service & Marksman Medals & Dog Tags (Ranging from 1889 to 1920's) Collection belonging to Sergeant Charles E. Smith, who served in the New York State National Guard from the late Indian Wars era to the post WWI years. This medal grouping needs some research to obtain Smith’s history in the New York National Guard, a career that appears to have lasted at least 30+ years.
