Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Light Dragoon Well, then, I enlisted in London; and, marching to Maidstone, underwent the customary. Examinations after. Which, I was attested before a magistrate, and had my bounty paid with strict exactitude. Unfortunately for me, however, the society into which I was thrown bore no resemblance at all to a well-re ulated regiment. The barracks were filled with small etachments from a countless variety of corps, and the sergeants and cor porals, on whom the internal discipline both of regiments and depots mainly depends, seem to me, at this distance of time, to have been selected from the very scum of the earth. Like a band of h ies, they pounced upon us recruits, and never let us oose from their talons till they had thoroughly pigeoned us. We were invited to their, rooms of an evemng, - introduced to their wives, who made much of us, raised, .favoured, screened, and cajoled, till our funds egan to run low, and then they would have nothing more to say to us. Under these circumstances, we were sufiiciently well pleased when the order came to join the regiment at Clonmel a and, being put in charge of one Corporal Gorman, we began our journe profoundly ignorant both of the route we were to ollow, and the extent of funds which would be allowed us during the continuance of the march.

Download or read book History of the Sixteenth the Queen s Light Dragoons Lancers written by Henry Graham and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
