Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Sixteenth, the Queen´s, Light Dragoons (Lancers): 1912 to 1925 At the request of the Officers of the Regiment I have in this volume brought down the History of the 16th Lancers from 1912 to 1925. The period includes two important episodes in the Regimental record - one, the Ulster affair in 1914, when the Officers of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade by their honourable and unselfish conduct averted the imminent danger of a Civil War; the other the Great War, in which the Regiment displayed its usual valour and discipline, and gained its usual honour and distinction. Its long Roll of Casualties and rewards is sufficient testimony to the way in which its duties were performed in the Field. In writing the record of the Regiment during the war I have only entered into the details of those actions in which the 16th themselves took part. For the rest enough only is given to enable a reader to follow the general course of the campaign. I am indebted to Colonel Cecil Howard for the account of the Regiment in India and Egypt and for the Polo Appendix. The maps are those given in the official History of the War, and have been supplied to me by the Director General of Ordnance Survey, and have been used by special permission of the War Office.
