Egyptian army doctors outnumbered Europeans four-to-one in each infantry regiment

Evidence

It was decided that each infantry regiment was to have one European doctor supervising three Egyptian ones. The cavalry regiments were to have one European doctor in addition to two Egyptian ones. Those Egyptian doctors were to be given the rank of second lieutenant. All doctors were to be under the supervision of their respective colonels and brigadiers without these latter, however, interfering in their professional work. — Khaled Fahmy, All the Pasha_s Men_ Mehmed Ali, his…, 1118
