<br />List of January 1851 pages 90 & 91. They are listed under the
<br />overall heading of "Dock Yard Volunteers". It would seem that
<br />most of the Officers were appointed to these posts on 1st June
<br />1848.
<br />
<br />Their uniforms were stated to be "Blue with Red
<br />Facings".
<br />
<br />I would assume that the "Breakwater Battalion" refers to
<br />Plymouth as that is the only one of the naval ports at that time
<br />to have a breakwater. The abbreviation (adj) means 'Adjutant'.
