COMMISSARIAT DEPARTMENT.[[U]]
[U]. The Commissariat officers who served at Waterloo were not granted the Waterloo medal, and none of them ever appeared in any Army List with the glorious “W” before their names, although, in after years, those who had served in the Pa. had the “P” before their names in the Army Lists, and they recd. the Par. medal in 1848. It is, therefore, impossible, to give any correct list of officers belonging to the above department, but the Editor gives the names of six officers who were undoubtedly at Waterloo.
