13th/16th Cavalry
The 13th/16th Cavalry is a distinguished armoured regiment of the Indian Army, known for its rich heritage and operational versatility. Formed during the British Raj, it is a result of the merger of the 13th Duke of Connaught's Own Lancers and the 16th Cavalry, which occurred post-independence in 1950. The regiment played a significant role in various conflicts, including World War I and World War II, demonstrating exceptional prowess in both traditional cavalry roles and modern mechanized warfare. The 13th/16th Cavalry is celebrated for its ceremonial duties and active engagement in counter-insurgency operations, reflecting its commitment to the nation's security. With a reputation for gallantry and dedication, the regiment continues to uphold its legacy within the Indian Army.
