"Brown had a passion for botany, In 1793, Brown dropped out of his medical courses and around a year later, he was commissioned as part of the Fifeshire Regiment of Fencibles as a surgeon’s mate. The regiment was assigned to Ireland and seeing little action, he focused his time on botany pursuits."
