Provenance: Dix Noonan Webb, September 2018.

Thomas MacMillan Fogo was appointed a Supernumerary Assistant Surgeon in the Ordnance Medical Department (a separate branch of the Royal Artillery) on 22 January 1806, and Assistant Surgeon on 1 February 1808. He served the campaign of 1808-09, under Sir John Moore, including the battle of Corunna; in the Expedition to Walcheren later in 1809; and on a Secret Expedition in March 1810, which landed at Cadiz in April, reinforcing the army under Lord Lyndoch. The Ordnance force being greater than an ordinary regiment (1150 men), and Dr Fogo being the senior medical officer, he was given the local rank of Surgeon. He remained at Cadiz until July 1811, when he returned to England for the benefit of his health.

Fogo subsequently went to Portugal in March 1812, and from July was Senior Ordnance Medical Officer at Cadiz. When the siege was raised in August, he accompanied the force which followed the retiring French army; but the pursuit being given up at Seville, he returned to Cadiz, and remained there until its final evacuation in August 1814. He served also the campaign of 1815, including the battle of Waterloo, and the advance to Paris. At Waterloo he is thought to have assisted with the assessment and surgery performed on Lord Uxbridge. He retired on half-pay on 1 September 1816.

Fogo returned to full-pay as M.D. on 19 March 1825, and was appointed Senior Surgeon on 1 January 1843. He retired on full-pay on 25 July 1849, and died at Tiverton, Devon, on 28 September 1850.
