The number of regiments is down from 72 to 8. This means that 5 of them are now at full strength and the other 3 are almost there! The same drastic action has taken place within the mounted arm, only 3 squadrons remain. Many famous names have gone forever, Hargreaves Heavy Horse, The Galloping Gallants and the Snorters to name a few. The whole defence network has been revamped around three huge new fortresses and every other placement and type of unit has been scrapped to avoid the confusion that lead to the recent defeats. Chief of the General Staff Field Marshal Sir Gordon Bennet is reported to have said that Brigadier Charles Bromley-Pugh has done a first class job, it all sparkles like the gin decanter eh!
