11th Indian Cavalry Brigade

The 11th Indian Cavalry Brigade was a distinguished formation of the British Indian Army, established during the early 20th century. It played a significant role in various military campaigns, particularly during World War I and World War II. Formed in 1917, the brigade was part of the Indian Armed Forces and comprised multiple cavalry regiments, which predominantly included Indian soldiers. The brigade was initially engaged in operations on the Western Front and later in the Middle East, showcasing its versatility and effectiveness in both mounted and dismounted roles. Following India's independence in 1947, the brigade's legacy continued within the modern Indian Army, contributing to the development of armored and mechanized warfare.
