Where Duty Calls Me: Napoleonic War Experiences of Rifleman William Green
Where Duty Calls Me: Napoleonic War Experiences of Rifleman William Green, 95th Regiment
Step into the life of a sharpshooter of the legendary 95th Rifles. In his own words, William Green recalls the marches, battles, and sieges that shaped his service during the Peninsular War—including Ciudad Rodrigo, Badajoz, Busaco, and Corunna.
This updated edition goes beyond the battlefield, telling the remarkable story of how Green’s long-lost campaign medals were rediscovered by historian Mel Siddons after the book was first published in 1975, and how a moving commemoration service in 2002 helped bring his memory back into the light.
