"Our Cavalry" by Major-General M. F. Rimington is a military text that appears to have been written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a guide aimed primarily at junior officers within the cavalry and discusses the principles and tactics of cavalry operations throughout history, drawing lessons from past military leaders and battles. The author emphasizes the importance of cavalry in combat, training, and the effective use of horses, weapons,
and tactics. At the start of the text, Rimington reflects on the enduring role of cavalry by discussing its historical significance, from ancient armies to contemporary practices. He summarizes key principles that have guided successful cavalry operations, such as cohesion among troops, the moral impact of a cavalry charge, and the need for effective leadership. The opening also introduces the importance of historical examples in shaping modern cavalry tactics, with a focus on how lessons learned from the battlefield can inform present-day military strategies.
