Isaac Green, who was born near Kenilworth, Warwickshire, enlisted in the 3rd Light Dragoons in May 1811, and subsequently served with the Colours for 28 years, including active employment in ‘the Peninsula for two years and engaged in the actions of Vittoria and Toulouse, and with the Army of Occupation in France for above two years’. Described as an ‘excellent soldier’, he was discharged at Chatham in May 1839 in consequence of chronic rheumatism (his attestation and discharge papers refer).
