[15] The 26th did, indeed, return to the Peninsula, but they were employed in the thankless task of performing garrison duty at Lisbon, and not having been actively engaged, have not received the battle honour.

[16] These figures include the losses during the operations at Badajoz in 1811. The 51st and 97th were not present in 1812, so these regiments do not bear the battle honour "Badajoz."

[17] The Household Cavalry do not bear the honour "Vittoria," nor do they figure in the casualty returns, but Lord Wellington, in submitting the medal rolls, included Major Camac of the 1st Life Guards, Captain Jackson of the 2nd Life Guards, and Major Packe of the Royal Horse Guards, as entitled to gold medals for having commanded their regiments in this battle.

[18] Two companies of the Madras Sappers accompanied the expedition to Bourbon, but the battle honour has not yet been awarded to the 2nd Queen's Own Sappers and Miners.

[19] Field Officers of the regiments employed received £527; Captains, £82; Subalterns, £40; sergeants, £12; and privates, £2 10s.

[20] The battle honour "Burmah" was awarded to the 121st Pioneers for services in the squadron operating on the Burmese coast in the campaign of 1824-1826.

[21] The 44th (Essex) lost 22 officers and 645 N.C.O.'s and men in this disastrous retreat.

[22] Skinner's Horse, the 101st Grenadiers, and the 105th Mahratta Light Infantry were actively employed in Cutchee in 1839 under Colonel Billamore, but they have not been awarded the battle honour.

[23] Ramnuggur: 4 officers and 34 men killed; 13 officers and 72 men wounded.

[24] Sadoolapore: 2 officers and 14 men killed; 4 officers and 45 men wounded.
