1931 Cavalry Sword & Pistol Training

1931. Silent. English. Aldershot, Hampshire. Full title reads; “Aldershot. In these modern mechanised days - it is refreshing to see the Cavalry are still as skilful with sword and lance as in pre-war days!“ Soldiers on horseback demonstrate their mounted sword drill - leaping fences and stabbing dummies. A soldier rides his horse over jumps and fires his pistol. More soldiers go through their sword and pistol routines while mounted.
