Footnotes
348 Colonel Anson received the Victoria Cross for gallantry at Bolandshuhur, shortly after he had left the Rifle Brigade. I have noted only in this list the honours obtained by Riflemen while in the Regiment.
349 Where no rank is indicated, the name is that of a Private Rifleman.
350 These medals and crosses were granted to general and field officers (according to the recommendation of the Duke of Wellington), ‘for important actions only, and to those engaged in them in a conspicuous manner,’ Despatches, viii. 94. I have of course not recorded medals which were granted indiscriminately to all present in an action or campaign.
351 Captain Harvey, Paymaster.
