Cam_s Posted 5 August , 2016 Share Posted 5 August , 2016 Hello all, I have been having some difficulty locating the divisional records for a few Cavalry formations. I can find their units and Bde's but not the divisional records. Would anyone be able to help me find the following? - 3rd Cavalry Division Apr - Jun 1916 and then Mar 18 - End of the war. - 2nd Indian Cavalry Division/ 5th Cavalry Division Jun 16 - Mar 18 Thanks for any help, Cam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam_s Posted 5 August , 2016 Author Share Posted 5 August , 2016 Thanks, This has provided what I have been looking for. Every time I search the divisions by name all I get are medal cards and not the Divisional HQ's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
