Description

The 13th/18th Royal Hussars: A Story of Courage and Sacrifice in World War II The 13th/18th Royal Hussars, a regiment that began its journey as a mounted cavalry unit in India, underwent a remarkable transformation to become a mechanised, armoured cavalry unit. Their bravery and sacrifice are told in the story of their involvement in some of the most pivotal moments of World War II, including the D-Day landings and the liberation of Europe. Through the eyes of the Regiment's soldiers and officers, this book brings to life the personal experiences of those who fought in some of the war's most intense battles. With many previously unpublished photographs, this account provides a unique and detailed insight into the Regiment's achievements and the human cost of their service. With over 240 pages of detailed history and personal testimonies, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of the British Army during World War II.
