The following table, extracted from the service records of the leading
British Generals of the era summarises the periods in which they
served as Lieutenant-Colonels in their respective regiments.
It provides an interesting glimpse into the background of the leading
commanders of the era, and perhaps some insight into the popularity
of certain units over others – also interesting is that hard-fighting
units such as the 29th, 42nd, 45th and 95th generated fewer than the
typical quota of future general officers.
There are a few stellar groupings – look at the 7th Hussars
or 90th Foot for example.
This list of generals is not exhaustive; it has been limited to those
who saw active service in the period 1793 to 1815. Quite a few ‘Desk
Generals’ were excluded! However if you wanted to become a General,
one thing was clear: Join the Guards...
