Regiments / ♞ 10th "Prince of Wales' Own" Regiment of Hussars [EU | Recruiting!]
« on: March 26, 2018, 02:01:12 am »Good day sir and welcome to the official thread of the 10th "Prince of Wales' Own" Regiment of Hussars!
This regiment is an EU Cavalry Regiment, mostly casual yet also competitive and composed of veteran players as well as beginners.
Our goal as a community is to maintain a stable and enjoyable atmosphere, a goal which so far we are achieving, as well as to pose a challenge to those willing to fight us.
For those new to the regiment or its community or those of you who are just curious, the 10th Hussars was established around the end of 2016 and was disbanded around May 2017 due to internal issues.
Despite the disband, the core of the community remained solid and together, until January 2018 where it decided to reform as a cavalry detachment of the 85e.
Unfortunately the 85e disbanded just few months after the regiment arrival. From there, the regimental community voted and decided to reform the 10th Hussars.
In 1783 King George III ordered it to switch from dragoons to light dragoons and renamed it after his eldest son the Prince of Wales, who became its colonel in 1796. Impressed by the colourful uniforms of the French and Allied cavalry, the Prince of Wales renamed, re-clothed and re-equipped the regiment as Britain’s first ever hussar unit in 1806 and remained its colonel until his coronation as King George IV in 1820.
In 1808 the regiment sailed for the Peninsula, where it was used to screen Sir John Moore’s retreat to Corunna (1809). During that operation it captured 100 French cavalry on Christmas Day, as well as fighting at Benavente, where Private Grisdall of the regiment captured General Lefebvre-Desnoettes, the French cavalry’s commander-in-chief. It was evacuated with the rest of the army in January 1809 and only returned to the Peninsula in 1813, fighting its way into France.
It fought in the Waterloo campaign of 1815, where one of its patrols brought Wellington news of the Prussian retreat at Wavre, and then joined the Army of Occupation in Paris for a year. It then spent 30 years in England, with the exception of two squadrons which were sent to Portugal in 1826.
