Robert Thomas Hamilton (died 1677) was a military officer who served in Denmark and Norway.
Hamilton's promotion continued and he made lieutenant colonel in 1661 due to a commendation by King Charles II.
In 1668, King Frederik III of Denmark-Norway ordered the Governor-general of Norway to pay 2000 rigsdaler of the army's money to Hamilton in advance of his wages.
[2][3] In 1670, Hamilton left the cavalry and became commander of Kronborg Castle and was also appointed as the County Governor of Lister og Mandals amt in 1671.
These marines were still in service in the forces of Rigsadmiral Gustaf Otto Stenbock in 1679, although Hamilton himself died before that date.
