Synopsis
Excerpt from Cavalry Horsemanship and Horse Training: R sponses Au Questionnaire D'equitation De L'ecole De Cavalerie
It has, I think, been conclusively proved, more than ever during the present war, that any time spent on Equitation, whether applied to trooper or troop horse, has not been wasted.
As the life-taking mechanical appliances improve in efficiency, so must the Cavalry, by means Of their training, increase their power to manoeuvre rapidly, and adopt with the maximum speed and smoothness, formations which are at the same time elastic and comprehensive.
The Germans, in March, 1918, found to their cost that without Cavalry their army was not able to reap the fruits of victory. The Allies, by means of theirs, have been able to strike decisive blows in all the many theatres of war.
