Let Thy grace enlighten her, Thy goodness confirm her, and Thy providence protect her, and grant that she, and all who are in authority under her, may advance Thy glory, and the welfare of her people; through Jesus Christ our Lord.’ Amen . ‘O Lord our God, who from Thy throne beholdest all kingdoms of the earth, have regard unto our land, that it may continue a place and a people to serve Thee to the end of time. Guide the Governments of this great Commonwealth of Nations, and grant that all those who live beneath our flag may be mindful of that threefold cross, that they may work for the good of others, according to the example of Him who died in the service of men, Thy Son, our Saviour, Jesus Christ our Lord.’ Amen . ‘Remember, O Lord, what thou hast wrought in us, and not what we deserve, and as Thou has called us to Thy service, make us worthy of our calling, through Jesus Christ our Lord.’ Amen . 4 31651_Lancers Booklet_Final:Layout 1 27/03/2017 16:50 Page 11 The Chaplain General shall say: ‘In the name of the Father, and the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, we do consecrate and set apart this Guidon, that it may be a sign of our duty towards our Queen and Country in the sight of God.’ Amen . Lord’s Prayer: ‘Our Father, which art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, in earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil; for Thine is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever and ever.’ Amen . The Chaplain General shall say: ‘O Lord, who rulest over all things, accept, we beseech Thee, our service this day. Bless what we have blessed in Thy Name. Let Thy gracious favour rest on those who shall follow the Guidon now about to be committed to their trust. Give them courage and may they show self control in the hour of success, patience in the time of adversity; and may their honour lie in seeking the honour and the glory of Thy great Name. Guide the counsels of those who shall lead them by Thy help in time of need. Grant that they may all so faithfully serve Thee in this life, that they fail not finally to obtain an entrance into Thy Heavenly Kingdom, through the merits of Thy Blessed Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.’ Amen . The Regimental Chaplain shall say: ‘Oh Eternal God, we thy servants of The Royal Lancers, pray that we may ever give loyal, obedient and selfless service to You, our Heavenly Father, to our anointed Sovereign and to our country. Strengthen us with courage, so that we may finally pass through death to everlasting glory, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord.’ Amen .

It was raised again in 1858 as the 5th Royal Irish Lancers. The 9th Lancers and the 12th Lancers were both formed in 1715 as regiments of Light Dragoons in response to the Jacobite rebellion against King George 1. The 16th Light Dragoons were raised in 1759 and first saw action in the American War of Independence; the 17th Light Dragoons were raised in 1759 following General Wolf’s death in Quebec, with the regiment’s motto of a Death’s Head and the scroll ‘Or Glory’ chosen in commemoration. The Marquis of Granby raised the 21st Light Dragoons in 1760, the regiment being disbanded and raised twice more as campaigns required; it was raised for a fourth time in 1858. The 9th, 12th and 16th Lancers have the distinction of being three of the original five regiments of Lancers converted from Light Dragoons by the Duke of Wellington in 1816. The 16th Lancers first used the lance in action at Bhurtpore in 1825 and, after the battle of Aliwal in 1846, its lance pennons, which were encrusted with blood appeared to be crimped so it became a tradition to have 16 creases in the lance pennons. The 17th Light Dragoons was the first cavalry regiment deployed in the American war of Independence and in October 1854, as the 17th Lancers, the regiment charged with the Light Brigade at Balaklava, earning three VCs. In 1857 both the 9th and 12th Lancers fought throughout the Indian Mutiny where the 9th were awarded 13 VCs. In 1858 at Sindwaho, Lt later FM Sir Henry Wood 17th Lancers was awarded the VC.

  • Curragh Camp Military Cemetery
    Curragh Camp Military Cemetery 2836 Sergeant George Lelliott 21st Lancers st (21 Empress of India's Lancers) ___________ The 21st Lancers (Empress of India's) were a cavalry regiment of the British Army, created in 1858 and amalgamated to form the 17th/21st Lancers in 1922. Perhaps its most famous engagement was the Battle of Omdurman, where Winston Churchill 4th Hussars, rode with the unit. The regiment was originally raised in Bengal by the British East India Company in 1858 as the 3rd Bengal European Light Cavalry, for service in the Indian Mutiny. As with all other "European" units of the Company, they were placed under the command of the Crown in 1858, and formally moved into the British Army in 1862, when they were designated as hussars and titled the 21st Regiment of Hussars. A detachment saw service in the 1884– 5 expedition to the Sudan, with the Light Camel Regiment. In 1897 they were redesignated as lancers, becoming the 21st Lancers, and in 1898 served in the Mahdist War in the Sudan. It was here they fought at the Battle of Omdurman, where members of the Regiment won three Victoria Crosses. That same year, the regiment was given the title 21st (Empress of India's) Lancers, being named for Queen Victoria, the Empress of India. Sergeant George Lelliott was born in 1864. He enlisted in the 14th Hussars between April 1883 and November 1886 and transferred to the 21st Lancers on 1st October 1887 with the rank of Private. The Lancers at this time were based in Colchester, Essex.

  • Extract from the War Diary of the 12Th Lancers (Crown Copyright: National Archives)
    Extract from the war diary of the 12th Lancers (Crown Copyright: National Archives) The transcription below appears as an appendix in the 12th Lancers’ war diary in August 1914. The appendix isn’t dated nor is there any indication of who wrote it. The appendix describes the Regiment’s successful attack on German cavalry near the village of Moy de L’Aisne, France on 28 August 1914. At 3.a.m., on the morning of the 28th August, 1914, the 12th Royal Lancers was hurriedly turned out from its bivouac at Bernot, and rendezvoused on some high ground to the S.W. of St. Quentin with the rest of the 5th Cavalry Brigade, where it halted for about half an hour, allowing time to draw its rations which had been hurriedly sent up in lorries by the zealous officer in charge. Moving off again towards St.Quentin, it halted under cover, and two officers patrols were despatched to Neuville and Mesnil St Laurent. These patrols, on their return, reported that there was no sign of the enemy, and that they had been unable to obtain any news of them from the inhabitants. About 10.30 a.m., orders were received from Brigade Headquarters that the Regiment was to go into Brigade Reserve for the day at Moy on the Oise. This was welcome news, as it was an exceedingly hot day, and men and horses would all be better for a good rest. The Regiment arrived at Moy about noon, where, after watering, the horses were off-saddled and fed in the chateau grounds of the village.
