The Thirteenth Hussars in the Great War

RETURN TO ENGLAND--CONCLUSION.

The Thirteenth remained in and about Mosul throughout the months of November and December 1918; but early in January 1919 they were ordered to return to Baghdad, and marching on the 11th of the month, arrived in Baghdad on the 29th.

There they remained in camp for some weeks, when the welcome order was received to embark for England. On the 10th March, the Regiment went on board a river steamer, and started on their journey down the Tigris. It was a large vessel, and with them were their old comrades of the Fourteenth Hussars. Trans-shipping at Basra to the _Etna_, and at Bombay to the _City of Sparta_, they arrived on the 29th April in the Mersey, and on the following day went ashore at Liverpool. On the 5th May they marched into the Cavalry Barracks at Aldershot, where they were to be quartered.

Here this History of ‘The Thirteenth Hussars in the Great War’ naturally comes to an end, for though the war was not formally concluded, the Regiment was now in England again, and its share in the military operations was over.

But so much has been written and spoken during the last few years regarding the value of Cavalry in modern war that, as remarked in the introductory chapter, it seems desirable, before leaving the subject of the services performed by the Regiment, to say a few words upon this question. It is one about which professional soldiers only can have an opinion of any value, and I therefore confine myself to quoting the opinion of professional soldiers.

The authorities whose views have been most definitely stated are Lord Haig, Lord Allenby, and the two Generals who commanded in Mesopotamia, Maude and Marshall.[61] The last two have been already quoted as to the Cavalry work in the advance to Baghdad, and beyond. General Allenby has written as follows regarding the operations in Palestine:--

“The Desert Mounted Corps took some 46,000 prisoners during the operations. The complete destruction of the VIIth and VIIIth Turkish armies depended mainly on the rapidity with which their communications were reached, and on quick decision in dealing with the enemy’s columns as they attempted to escape. The vigorous handling of the Cavalry by its leaders, and the rapidity of its movement, overcame all attempts to delay its progress. The enemy’s columns, after they had out-distanced the pursuing Infantry, were given no time to reorganise and fight their way through.”

Of course, the Cavalry did not effect their work alone. General Allenby says that the breaking of the enemy’s entrenched lines by the Infantry enabled the Cavalry to accomplish its mission. But this is no detraction from the merit of either. Both arms did their duty, and the result, in Palestine as in Mesopotamia, was what Henderson calls the most important operation of grand tactics--the surrounding and destruction of an enemy’s army.

General Haig is perhaps the most important witness of all, not only because of the greatness of his command, but because the Western Front, with its immense system of trenches, stretching from end to end of the theatre of war, was the one where Cavalry was at special disadvantage. In his final despatch, summing up the features of the war, he deliberately takes up the question, and gives his answer. I quote the following words:--

”_The Value of Cavalry in Modern War._

“17. From time to time, as the war of position dragged on, and the enemy’s trench systems remained unbroken, while questions of man-power and the shortage of shipping became acute, the wisdom or necessity of maintaining any large force of mounted men was freely discussed. In the light of the full experience of the War, the decision to preserve the Cavalry Corps has been fully justified. It has been proved that Cavalry, whether used for shock effect under suitable conditions, or as mobile Infantry, have still an indispensable part to play in modern war. Moreover, it cannot safely be assumed that in all future wars, the flanks of the opposing forces will rest on neutral states or impassable obstacles. Whenever such a condition does not obtain, opportunities for the use of Cavalry must arise frequently.”

General Haig proceeds to justify his opinion by examples, and concludes with a reference to the position of the British Cavalry on the morning of the Armistice which closed the war. “There is no doubt that, had the advance of the Cavalry been allowed to continue, the enemy’s disorganised retreat would have been turned into a rout.” In fact, the Armistice deprived the British Cavalry of the certainty of striking, in the last and greatest of all wars hitherto fought, and in that theatre of the war where they were at special disadvantage, the most stupendous blow ever struck by a body of armed horsemen since the history of the world began.

The British Cavalry consisted of Regiments similar to the Thirteenth Hussars. The story of such a Regiment is not therefore, as some think, the story of one unit of an arm which is now useless in war--as useless, it has been said, as bows and arrows. On the contrary, Cavalry has proved its usefulness up till now, and we may be sure that in the near future at all events, whether used on horseback for battle-shock, or as mobile Infantry, or in any other way of duty, it will still do good service to its country, as it has done in the past. The Cavalry spirit, please God, will never die in our people so long as war endures in the world, nor is there any reason to fear that we shall soon see the last of the famous squadrons in which that spirit is so gloriously embodied.

DEDICATION AND UNVEILING OF THE MEMORIAL TABLET

In Memory of the Officers, N.C.O.’s, and Men of the 13th Hussars who gave their lives in the Great War, 1914-1918.

“=Dead March=” (_Chopin_).

OPENING SENTENCES.

I am the Resurrection and the Life, saith the Lord; he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and whosoever liveth and believeth in Me, shall never die. (John xi. 25, 26.)

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (John xv. 13.)

I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, From henceforth blessed are the dead that die in the Lord: even so, saith the Spirit, for they rest from their labours.

PSALM XXIII.

_Dominus regit me._

1. The Lord is my Shepherd: therefore can I lack nothing.

2. He shall feed me in a green pasture: and lead me forth beside the waters of comfort.

3. He shall convert my soul: and bring me forth in the paths of righteousness, for His Name’s sake.

4. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me, Thy rod and Thy staff comfort me.

5. Thou shalt prepare a table before me against them that trouble me: Thou hast anointed my head with oil, and my cup shall be full.

6. But Thy loving-kindness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

(_Gloria._)

THE LESSON.

WISDOM iii. 1-6.

But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and there shall no torment touch them. In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die; and their departure is taken for misery, and their going from us to be utter destruction: but they are in peace. For though they be punished in the sight of men, yet is their hope full of immortality. And having been a little chastised, they shall be greatly rewarded; for God proved them and found them worthy for Himself. As gold in the furnace hath He tried them, and received them as a burnt-offering.

HYMN.

“Fight the good fight.” (A.M. 540.)

PRAYERS.

Almighty God, with whom do live the spirits of them that depart hence in the Lord, and with whom the souls of the faithful, after they are delivered from the burden of the flesh, are in joy and felicity; We give Thee hearty thanks, for that it hath pleased Thee to take our brethren into Thy merciful keeping: beseeching Thee that we, with all those that are departed in the true faith of Thy Holy Name, may have our perfect consummation and bliss, both in body and soul, in Thy eternal and everlasting glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN.

Almighty God, we commend to Thy loving kindness the souls of Thy servants, the men of this Regiment, whom we now commemorate before Thee. Accept, O Lord, the offering of their self-sacrifice, and grant to them with all Thy faithful servants a place of refreshment and peace where the light of Thy countenance shines for ever, and where all tears are wiped away; through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN.

Comfort, O Lord, we pray Thee, all who are mourning the loss of those near and dear to them. Be with them in their sorrow. Support them with the knowledge of Thy love. Teach them to rest and lean on Thee. Give them faith to look beyond the troubles of this present time, and to know that neither life nor death can separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord, to whom with the Father and the Holy Ghost be all honour and glory, now and for ever. AMEN.

Dedication of the Memorial Tablet.

By the Rev. F. I. ANDERSON, C.M.G., S.C.F., C. of E., Aldershot, Chaplain to the King.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, we dedicate this Memorial to the glory of God, and in memory of the Men of this Regiment who have fallen in the great War. May their example inspire us to courage in the greater war against all evil. May their memory ever burn brightly in those who here or elsewhere remember their deeds, and, strengthened by their fellowship, look forward to reunion with them in the inheritance of the saints in light.

We give Thee thanks, O Lord, Father Almighty, for all those Thy servants who waxed valiant in fight and wrought righteousness, and counting not their life dear unto themselves, laid it down for their friends; and we pray Thee that, having fought a good fight and finished their course with joy, they may rejoice evermore with them that have come out of great tribulation, and, having washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb, stand before Thy Throne and serve Thee day and night for ever; through Him that overcame and is set down on Thy Throne, Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost now and ever and world without end. AMEN.

The Address.

Most merciful Father, Who hast been pleased to take unto Thyself the souls of those whom we now commemorate before Thee, grant unto us who are still in our pilgrimage and who walk as yet by faith that, having served Thee with constancy on earth, we may be joined hereafter with Thy blessed saints in glory everlasting, through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN.

THE LORD’S PRAYER.

THE BENEDICTION.

The Lord grant to us, together with all His faithful servants, rest and peace in Christ Jesus our Lord. AMEN.

The National Anthem.

The Last Post by Massed Trumpeters.

HYMN.

O GOD, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home;

Beneath the shadow of Thy Throne Thy Saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is Thine Arm alone And our defence is sure.

O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guard while troubles last, And our eternal home. AMEN.

Thirteenth Hussars Old Comrades Association.

This Association--originally called the “Old Comrades Dinner Club”--was formed in accordance with a suggestion made at a meeting held at the Office of the 13th Hussars Association, on Saturday, 1st March 1913, under the Presidency of Lieut.-Colonel E. A. Wiggin, when a large number of past and present officers of the Regiment were present, also a good number of late N.C.O.’s and men. A committee was formed, and it was decided to start a Club of Old Comrades of the Regiment under the title of “The Old Comrades Dinner Club,” for the purpose of holding an Annual Dinner.

The Annual Dinner is held on the fourth Saturday in October.

All retired officers, non-commissioned officers, and men whose addresses are known have been invited to enrol themselves as members.

Men of the Regiment of good character on taking their discharge are eligible for election, and are requested to send their names and addresses to the Hon. Secretary.

The Annual Subscription is 2s. 6d.

PRINTED BY WILLIAM BLACKWOOD AND SONS. FOOTNOTES:

[Footnote 1: It may be noted that Hannibal’s invasion of Italy led, two thousand years later, to the recognition of the influence of sea power on history. Admiral Mahan himself described to the writer how it one day occurred to him that Hannibal’s long march from Spain to Italy had been necessitated by the Roman strength at sea, and that this was the underlying cause of his eventual ruin. Following up the train of thought, Mahan gradually worked out his great conception. Hannibal’s march was the germ from which it sprang.]

[Footnote 2: Captain Gubbins, Lieutenants Geale and Pymm.]

[Footnote 3: Oriental names in this book are not always spelt consistently on one scientific system. For example, it has not been thought proper to alter the original spelling in letters quoted, or to correct well-known names such as Lucknow or Bangalore.]

[Footnote 4: Captain Norman Neill, afterwards killed on the Western Front.]

[Footnote 5: In 1885 England was for a time on the point of war with Russia. The outburst of feeling in India was the same then as in 1914, and should not have been forgotten.]

[Footnote 6: This Regiment, it may be noted, was named after Colonel Skinner, the founder of the Bengal Cavalry system. He was the son of a Scotch officer and a Rajputni girl, so he had fighting blood on both sides.]

[Footnote 7: See Appendix IV.]

[Footnote 8: See Appendix II.]

[Footnote 9: The inefficiency of German Cavalry in all but mass manœuvring was only what Henderson’s criticisms on their work in 1870 had already pointed out. See the ‘Science of War.’]

[Footnote 10: Lieutenant J. V. Dawson.]

[Footnote 11: “We” being the Indian Cavalry Corps.]

[Footnote 12: Privates J. Tracey and D. Pitman.]

[Footnote 13: As to the value of its work in Europe opinions differed. Some seemed to think little of it. Some declared that during the time when English reinforcements were not yet ready to go into line, the Indian contingent had saved the British Army from being overwhelmed. Both these views were perhaps extreme. The Indian soldier fought under serious disadvantage in the climate and surroundings of Europe, but undoubtedly he fought with great devotion and suffered heavy losses, for which England owes him deep gratitude. The matter may well be allowed to rest there.]

[Footnote 14: Beluchistan may for practical purposes be regarded as a part of India.]

[Footnote 15: In 1854, when the Regiment went to the Russian War, it is recorded that on one of the transports “the beef had made several voyages to and from India, and then been returned into store. Some barrels of peas even bore the date 1828 plainly painted thereon. It was impossible to boil them--also the pork (salt) was as aged as the salt beef, and as bad.” The _Islanda_ was better than this.]

[Footnote 16: Australians.]

[Footnote 17: Bombay.]

[Footnote 18: European privates’ tents, with double roof and sides--as some protection against heat.]

[Footnote 19: General Cobbe did in fact command an Army Corps later on, but the command-in-chief went to General Maude.]

[Footnote 20: Caprice, his favourite mare, had been left at Bombay among the sick horses.]

[Footnote 21: Arab Village.]

[Footnote 22: Arab Village.]

[Footnote 23: Expeditionary Force Canteen.]

[Footnote 24: December.]

[Footnote 25: “Pusht i Kuh,” or Back of the Mountains, is the district so called by the Persians, their western district.]

[Footnote 26: Captain Eve, the senior Captain, was then second in command of the Regiment, owing to the absence of Major Twist, disabled, and on the particular day, as Colonel Richardson was on other duty, Eve had taken the Regiment into action. Captain Steele was next in seniority.]

[Footnote 27: The man was Private T. O’Connor. In a letter from Mesopotamia to Mr Justice Eve he writes: “I was the last ammunition-carrier to get wounded that day, and your son and Captain Steele came out under heavy machine-gun fire and carried me in as we evacuated that position that night, thus saving me from being taken prisoner. There is no need to tell you he was loved in the squadron, as we have missed him as one of the finest soldiers and leaders of men any soldier could wish to follow.”]

[Footnote 28: The horse casualties from fire had been numerous, and many horses had been lost from fatigue and exposure.]

[Footnote 29: It may be well to note here that in the course of this campaign, where the Tigris was the main line of communication, the distances were usually calculated by river. The distances by road, when a road existed, were much shorter, roughly perhaps half the river distances.]

[Footnote 30: As a fact the Infantry got across on the 23rd.]

[Footnote 31: This was Lieutenant Payne of “D” Squadron.]

[Footnote 32: Of the 24th February.]

[Footnote 33: Commonly written “nullas”--ravines.]

[Footnote 34: The Regimental Diary says 9 o’clock, the Colonel of the Thirteenth says a little before 10.]

[Footnote 35: Captain Eve’s mare Caprice was lost for a year or more after the charge, but was then seen by his batman, Private Hogg, among the horses of an Indian Cavalry Regiment. She was recovered and brought to England.]

[Footnote 36: Lieutenant Fitzgibbon crawled out into the open several times to look after the wounded. It was on one of these occasions that he found Captain Eve’s body, and removed his watch, rings, and spurs.]

[Footnote 37: The name was Pinnington.]

[Footnote 38: Captain Eve.]

[Footnote 39: Lieutenant Dawson.]

[Footnote 40: Captain Steele of “C” Squadron.]

[Footnote 41: Private A. Wallhead, killed after putting Lieutenant Dawson in safety. Sergeant H. Knapman, too, was killed while helping the wounded.]

[Footnote 42: Private Alfred Jones.]

[Footnote 43: His charger.]

[Footnote 44: This was doubtless Watkins.]

[Footnote 45: Major Twist was apparently wounded earlier, when the three squadrons wheeled to the right.]

[Footnote 46: Baghdad lies on both sides of the river.]

[Footnote 47: Garden or grove.]

[Footnote 48: 6th March.]

[Footnote 49: The bodies of these men and officers were afterwards removed to Baghdad, and buried in the British Cemetery, under the superintendence of the Rev. F. H. Cooke, M.C.]

[Footnote 50: Afternoon of the 9th?]

[Footnote 51: ? 24th February, when the pursuit began.]

[Footnote 52: This from the officer of a conquering army.]

[Footnote 53: March.]

[Footnote 54: The Regimental Diary of 14th May says: “Moved into standing camp at Chaldari.”... “The tents were on the edge of a palm grove, but the horses were picketed down in the open.”]

[Footnote 55: The old camp on the Hai stream. The kit was not received till the middle of May.]

[Footnote 56: Khalis Canal?]

[Footnote 57: The expedition against the Arabs in May 1917.]

[Footnote 58: The Jebel Hamrin is described by the Colonel of the Thirteenth as not unlike the Cheviot Hills.]

[Footnote 59: Private J. Tunnicliffe.]

[Footnote 60: “Includes myself and Captain Godfree (2nd in command).”]

[Footnote 61: It may possibly be argued that both Lord Haig and Lord Allenby were Cavalry officers, and therefore perhaps inclined to think highly of the achievements of their own arm. They certainly were Cavalry officers, as was Lord French, a fact well worthy of note, but, like him, they were something more--great leaders of armies.]

[Footnote 62: Did not join Regiment for duty.]

[Footnote 63: Did not join Regiment for duty. Killed with R.F.C., May 22, 1917.]

[Footnote 64: Did not do duty with Regiment during war.]

[Footnote 65: Did not serve with Regiment during war. Killed on active service with 11th Hussars, 1914.]

[Footnote 66: Did not join Regiment for duty.]
