1st Bengal Lancers - An officerÍs waist-belt clasp, 19th century, bi-metal, bearing regimental device The 1st Duke of YorkÍs Own Lancers (SkinnerÍs Horse) was a unit of the British Indian Army from 1922 to independence and thereafter a unit of the Indian Army. It was raised in 1803 as SkinnerÍs Horse by James Skinner (Sikander Sahib) as an irregular cavalry regiment in the service of the East India Company, the regiment became (and remains) one of the seniormost cavalry regiments of the Armoured Corps of the Indian Army. There were two regiments of Indian Cavalry raised by Colonel James Skinner in 1803. They became the 1st Bengal Lancers and the 3rd SkinnerÍs Horse. On the reduction of the Indian Army in 1922, they were amalgamated and became SkinnerÍs Horse (1st Duke of YorkÍs Own Cavalry). The old 1st Lancers wore yellow uniforms (unique in the world) and the old 3rd wore blue. Each regiment had the full-dress (mounted) long ïKurtaÍ worn with a turban and cummerbund, also a full-dress (dis-mounted) or levee dress Fusiliers - An officerÍs waist-belt clasp, 19th century, bi-metal, bearing regimental device and battle honours 33rd Regiment of Foot - An officerÍs waist-belt clasp, bi-metal, gilt finish, bearing regimental device The 33rd Foot was first raised in 1702 as ñThe Earl of HuntingdonÍs Regimentî by order of Queen Anne to fight in the War of the Spanish Succession. It fought with distinction in that war and subsequently in the War of the Austrian Succession, the Seven Years War and the American War of Independence. In 1782 it was decided to link regiments to a county. The Regiment then became the 33rd (or 1st Yorkshire West Riding). Lord Cornwallis, Colonel at the time, wrote, ñ...the 33rd Regt. of Infantry has always recruited in the West Riding of Yorkshire, and has a very good interest & the general good will of the people, in that part of the country.î They also acquired the nickname ñThe Havercake Ladsî after a type of oatcake used by recruiting parties to tempt recruits with promises of regular food. Arthur Wesley (later the Duke of Wellington) took over command of the regiment in 1793. During the Napoleonic Wars the 33rd saw action in the West Indies, Holland, Ile de Bourbon, Mauritius & India, where they took part the defeat of the dreaded ñTiger of Mysoreî, Tippoo Sultan. Returning to England in 1812 after 16 years abroad, the regiment was first based at Hull before being ordered in 1813 to carry out ñKingÍs Dutyî: standing guard at Windsor Castle. Six months later it departed again for Holland where it took part in the attack on Bergen-op-Zoom before Napoleon was exiled to Elba. They were still in Holland when ñThe Ogreî escaped and returned to France. Forming part of HalkettÍs 5th Brigade in AltenÍs 3rd Division they saw action at Quatre Bras. Marching back to Waterloo they were formed in the centre of the ridge between Hougomont and La Haye Sainte. Here they withstood the French attacks all day, finally repulsing even NapoleonÍs elite Imperial Guard. Between the 16th and 18th June 1815 the 33rd suffered a total of 277 casualties from a strength of 561, almost half their men.The 33rd Foot was first raised in 1702 as ñThe Earl of HuntingdonÍs Regimentî by order of Queen Anne to fight in the War of the Spanish Succession.
