Captain Hogan is an engineer with the British army. Instead of fighting in the infantry or cavalry, Hogan is tasked with creating fortifications or destroying things. When the novel opens, Hogan is in charge of destroying a bridge so that the French army cannot use it to cross and fight the British and Spanish armies.
