Overview

Punjab Cavalry is about a Regiment which was raised in 1849 as part of the Punjab Irregular Frontier Force to police the Indo-Afghan border. After serving in 1857 in Delhi and Lucknow, the unit became a regular cavalry regiment along with the Punjab Frontier Force. It participated in the Second Afghan War (1879-1880). After the frontier operations between 1894-1898, the Regiment never served in the frontier region again, and the Punjab Frontier Force was absorbed into the Indian Army. The Regiment fought in Mesopotamia in the first world war. It was mechanized in 1938. During the second world war, it fought against all the three axis powers, a unique experience in the British Indian army. After Partition it fought in all three Indo-Pak conflicts.
