    I have been reading what Captain Nolan has to say about how the Bengal Native Light Cavalry fared against the Sikh Gorchurra in the Anglo-Sikh Wars.

    They did not do very well.  Nolan put this down to how they were armed and equipped.  He seems to think the men themselves were fine.

    If you are interested in cavalry or the Anglo-Sikh Wars it makes fascinating reading.

    I have a piece on my blog looking at his findings.

    If it is of interest here is the link.
