Note 5 — Chapter II · The Necessity, Birth, and Progress of the Royal Horse Artillery.
Reading edition
It is but just to say, that much that is good in the care of the horses in the Royal Artillery in the field comes traditionally from the Horse Artillery attached to the German hussars in the Peninsula: and the riding of the Corps was first taught by a German riding-master brought from Hanover by George III.—Communicated by Sir D. E. Wood.
