James A Pratt III Posted 12 December , 2011 Share Posted 12 December , 2011 I am looking for information on the WW I service of the following Russian Cavalry and Infantry Regiments. The Empress Alexandra and her daughters were honoray Colonels of them. I found on the Axis History Forum sites WW I a question Pre War Armies of all nations answer from marksrussianmilitaryhistory.info/russ1914.htm which lists what division/corps/army each belonged to in late July 1914. Here is what I have: 5th Alexandriya Hussars/5th Cav Div/XVI corps/4 army Empress Alexandra 3rd Yelisantgrad Hussars/3rd Cav Div/III corps/1st army Grand Duchess Olga 8th vozneswak Lancers/8th cav Div/VIII corps/8th army Grand Duchess Tatania 9th Kazan Dragoons/9th cav Div/IX corps/3rd army Grand Duchess Maria 148th Caspian Infantry/37th Inf Div/I corps/2nd army Grand duchess Anastasia Later on in the war GD Olga was made honorary commander of the 2nd Kubansky Platustusky Bn I do know the I corps was mauled at Tannenburg.
