In 1673, he was wounded in the Battle of Schooneveld against the Dutch fleet.

Recovery was slow and painful and he required several surgical operations to remove bone fragments, performed without the benefit of anaesthesia.
He recuperated in Bath in the following spring where he was treated by Dr Robert Peirce.
He returned to Bath over several years for further treatment under Peirce's direction and regained some use of his hand.
In 1687, he was appointed colonel of a regiment of foot, which later became the East Yorkshire Regiment.
