C. From the End of the Seven Years’ War in 1763 to the Year 1783

After the end of the war the Electoral Hanover Army was reduced significantly. Simultaneously a regulation went into effect that every two regiments in the infantry and the cavalry (with the exception of the dragoons) should be condensed into one new regiment of two battalions. This process proceeded gradually and was completed in 1776; it was accomplished each time a regimental commander left or died.

The light troop units that were formed during the war were disbanded. The Freytag Rifle Corps, the Luckner Hussar Regiment and the Scheither Corps continued to exist within the two new light dragoon regiments that were established in 1763 and only gradually met the above stated regulations.

The military unit lists of the cavalry and infantry regiments looked as follows during the years 1763–1783: a. Cavalry

Some of the infantry regiments deserve special recognition. The 1st battalions of the Regiments von Reden [3], de La Motte [5] and von Hardenberg [6] were stationed in Gibraltar from 1775 to 1784 in order to replace English troops there, who were needed in America. Simultaneously and for the exact same purpose, the second battalions of the Regiments Prince Ernst [8] and von Goldacker [11] were stationed at Minorca. Both of the newly formed units (and for the first

141 1763–1783 time labeled using numerals), the 15th and 16th Infantry Battalions found themselves even farther from home in 1781. They saw action in India against the French and confederations of German princes in the service of the East India Company; not until 1791/92 did they return.

Based upon new fundamentals the militia establishment was reconfigured in 1766 through the formation of ten militia regiments. They received the designations Militia Regiments Hanover,1 Celle,2 Calenberg,3 Lüneburg,4 Grubenhagen,5 Wendisch,6 Hameln,7 Hoya,8 Göttingen,9 and .10 Finally to be mentioned are four garrison regiments that were also established in 1766. They existed more or
