Line regiments that are not infantry
[edit]From the history of the article
- 13:50, 22 August 2017 user:Bermicourt "Line regiments may be cavalry or artillery as well as infantry; perhaps a 3-way merger might be more logical. Discuss?"
Which armies had line regiments that were not infantry? There are no examples given in this stub. -- PBS (talk) 14:18, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
- Well for a start, the British Army. See the The Line Cavalry Regiments. I'll add them to the article. --Bermicourt (talk) 15:42, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
- In the Napoleonic Wars, the French Army had up to 30 regiments of dragoons which comprised the "cavalry of the line".[1]
