* Note. —At one time the guns in the Picket House Battery were manned by the bluejackets of H.M. 
Ship “ Wasp.” After the winter of 1854 the R.A. found all detachments for this battery. All Mortars, 
except one sea service manned by the Navy, were served by the Royal Artillery.— (f.a. w.) 
A few days later, Lord Raglan directed his approval to be made 
known to those concerned. Accordingly, the following order was 
issued on the 23rd. 
“ The Brigadier-General Commanding* has great pleasure in 
publishing to the Officers, N.-C.-Officers, and Men of the Royal 
Artillery, the following remarks made by F.M. Lord Raglan, on the 
conduct of Captains Henry and Walcott, and the Officers and Men 
under their command, whilst manning the guns in Nos. 7 and 8 batteries, 
Left Attack, on the mornings of the 13th and 14th April.” 
* Kane’s List, No. 1668. Later F.M. Sir Richard Dacres, G.C.B., died December 6th, 
1886.
