ARMY Captain Thomas Guy
This can be confusing: There’s another Captain Thomas Guy who appears in the diary in 1666. That one’s a NAVY captain, this one is in the ARMY.
Before Guy appears in the diary on 1 April 1660, he probably met Pepys on trips to the Exchequer to get pay for the troops of the Dunkirk garrison, where he was posted.
This Captain Guy may be the one who served in Kirke’s regiment in Tangier in the early 1680s and was wounded.
