field officer

The al Qaeda-linked gunmen shot back, but only managed to injure one officer before they were taken out.

He distinguished himself in several campaigns, especially in the Peninsular war, and was raised to the rank of field marshal.

We had six field-pieces, but we only took four, harnessed wit twice the usual number of horses.

There were two battalions, together about a thousand men; and they brought a field-piece with them.

The reveillée of the sleeping Mexicans was the discharge of our two field-pieces loaded with canister.

Then the enemy's howitzers and field guns had it all their own way, forcing attack to yield a lot of ground.
