Quote: Vindex: Interesting you should mention Sandhurst because I wrote to the library asking for assistance with the water needs of 18/19Century cavalry units etc.. I reasoned that if anyone had that information .... Didn't get a reply.

That's not good! PM me and we can take that further off line if you wish. The logisitics of cavalry is one of my favourite researches although I tend to concentrate on Roman. Happy to help if I can.
EDIT: There's also the fabulous Prince Consort's Library in Aldershot. 020 7218 9836 and 020 7218 0259 An amazing collection of military history the collection of which started in 1860 (strange that! :wink: )

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Merlot in one hand, Cigar in the other; body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!
