  • if i join the household cavalry as an officer is it mandatory that i do mounted duties first

  • @BCoy2Pacman I believe that for an Officer the mounted duty role is less rigid, yet more intermittent, than that of the recruits. I wouldn't be surprised if only Captains and above were generally in command of the guard mounting on Whitehall so other than the odd parade your Lieutenancy may mostly be spent with the combat regiment. Saying that I would imagine a riding course would soon follow your commissioning from RMAS. Contact the regiment or ask directly at a familiarisation visit.

  • joing after my a-levels -probs blues and royals, or parachute regiment/ intellegents

  • After A-levels? Are you seeking a commission or planning on going in as an OR?

  • This is very interesting. My maternal Grandfather and G-Grandfather were Hussars, way back, and my GF was a riding instructor as World War I started. I've often wondered how the training was done and I'm looking forward to the rest of the clips.

    As for myself, I'm just a retired Infantryman. I realized as a kid I had to talent for riding.

    Thanks!

  • This makes me so proud to be British...

    GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!!!

  • I used to have this on DVD somewhere....hmmm - there was a peice on the news about the household cav in afghan or iraq about a year ago and they interview the fat guy (forester?) he was in the back of a warrior. Seems to have made a career out of it which is great.

    Thanks.

  • @BCoy2Pacman

    you better be posher than a er posh person....

  • @BCoy2Pacman nearly all members of the household cavalry perform on both the mounted and amoured sides means they gain experience for promotion

  • @01MarchHare im not sure yet but i know i want a-levels so i have better opportunites after the army
