Pollock, George
Sir George Pollock, 1st Baronet
Field Marshal
Sir George Pollock, 1st Baronet
(4 June 1786 – 6 October 1872) was a
British Indian Army
officer. He first saw action at the
Battle of Deeg
and at the
Siege of Bhurtpore
during the
Second Anglo-Maratha War
before taking part in the
Anglo-Nepalese War
. He also commanded the British artillery at the
Battle of Prome
and at
Bagan
during the
First Anglo-Burmese War
. Following a disastrous
retreat from Kabul
in January 1842 during the
First Anglo-Afghan War
, the retreating forces became stranded at the small British garrison at
Jalalabad
and Pollock was appointed Commander of the Force sent to relieve the garrison: he advanced through the
Khyber Pass
and
relieved the garrison
in April 1842. He then set about an unauthorised but ultimately successful mission to rescue the British hostages who had been left behind in Kabul prior to the retreat. In 1844 the
Pollock Medal
was created to commemorate Pollock's achievements: this medal was to be awarded to the "best cadet of the season" at the
Addiscombe Military Seminary
.
