Seven Years Campaigning is the personal account of Sir Richard D Henegan, Military Commissary and later Ordnance Commissary with the Field Train of Wellington's army during the Napoleonic Wars. It is a vivid description of what life was really like for the soldiers who served under the Iron Duke.
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.
