In August 1808, Sir Richard D Henegan landed in Portugal as part of the British army sent to stop the French invasion of the Iberian Peninsula and put an end to Napoleon's Imperial ambitions. He provides an account of life in the army, describing not only the dangers of fighting, but also the existence for the soldier in Wellington's army.
Sir Richard D. Henegan served during the Peninsular War as Military Commissary in the Field Train, a corps attached to the Royal Artillery, in which he advanced to the position of Ordnance Commissary for the campaigns of 1813 and 1814 making him responsible for all ammunition and stores. For his service during these campaigns he was awarded the title of Knight of the Royal Guelphic Order, a decoration founded by George III and handed out for distinguished services to the UK from 1815-1837.
