Ashcroft, W | Second Lieutenant | Biography W. Ashcroft enlisted as a Private in the 7th Hussars before the Boer War and sailed with them in time to take part in the final round –up of the Boer Commandos. There were constant treks through the veldt and occasional minor skirmishes with the Boers, but the Hussars suffered more from exhaustion , fever and general unfitness than from enemy action. Whatever the challenges, Private Ashcroft proved himself to be an outstanding soldier and by the end of the campaign he had been promoted to Sergeant. In the early 20th Century, it was unusual in peace time for a Non-Commissioned Officer to attain a commission. Sergeant Ashcroft managed to make that leap which was, at the time, as much a social transition as a step up in professional responsibility. The Regimental roll for the 18th of November 1917 when the Regiment embarked at Karachi for passage to Mesopotamia lists 2nd Lieutenant Ashcroft alongside such notables as Major General Sir Hugh McCalmont, Captain Sir T.R Thompson and 2nd Lieutenant The Lord Porchester. A huge step for Private Ashcroft. Lieutenant Ashcroft served with distinction in the heat and dust of Mesopotamia gaining a Mention in Dispatches. After the war he was attached as a Captain to the Cavalry forces during the Iraq Campaign of December 1919 – November 1920. The Iraqi revolt against the British, also known as the 1920 Iraqi Revolt or Great Iraqi Revolution featured mass demonstrations by Iraqis, including protests by embittered officers from the old Ottoman army, against the British occupation of Iraq. It was quickly suppressed. Captain Ashcroft retired shortly after with the Long Service and Good Conduct Medal; a decoration intended for Non-Commissioned Officers which, of course, he was when he originally completed the required 18 years of faultless service.

Bankes, WGH | Cornet | Biography Cornet William Bankes was awarded the Victoria Cross for conspicuous gallantry, in thrice charging a body of infuriated fanatics, who had rushed on the guns employed in shelling a small mud fort in the vicinity of Moosa-Bagh, Lucknow. Why not read the citation which can be found here? In the course of these charges, the young officer was almost cut to pieces. He died of his wounds 18 days later. Cornet William Bankes is the only person who received a VC posthumously in the 19th century. In early 1858 the regiment was involved in relieving Lucknow, which had been under siege by rebel forces, and by mid-March, the Kaiserbagh Palace and the Residency were recaptured from the rebels. Most of the city was now in British hands and a large number of rebel soldiers retreated to Musa Bagh, an extensive palace complex to the northwest of the city. A three-pronged attack was launched to oust the rebels from the palace and the 7th Hussars, including Bankes, immediately became involved in heavy fighting. Bankes personally led three charges, killing three of the enemy but in bitter hand-to-hand combat after his final charge, he was unseated from his horse and brutally set upon by rebels wielding tulwars (curved swords), who hacked him to pieces. He received 11 separate wounds, many of them truly terrible, and was treated by the surgeon-general himself at the insistence of the commanding general Sir Colin Campbell. A report drawn up at the hospital stated that “one leg is lopped off above the knee; the other is nearly severed; one arm is cleft to the bone; the other has gone entirely; and about the body are many slashes”. As Bankes lay desperately wounded in hospital Queen Victoria heard of his courage and was so deeply moved by his plight that in a letter to The Princess Royal, she wrote: “There is a poor young man, of the name Bankes, who has been cut almost to pieces, he fell and was surrounded by a set of fanatics who cut at him, his thigh was nearly severed from his body and so was his arm!” “Besides six other desperate wounds!” “He has had his right leg and his right arm amputated and yet they hope he will live”. “This is, they say, the pattern of patience and fortitude.” Despite all the efforts to save him Bankes died in hospital in Lucknow on April 6, 1858, after contracting blood poisoning. He was aged just 21 and single. | |

Bone, AL | Regimental Sergeant Major | Biography RSM Bone was the principal Warrant Officer around 1911. It is not clear when he was appointed to the position and when he retired. There is a story that he told of a detail that he was part of in Mashonaland in 1897. He was a Corporal at the time and was on a wagon that had picked up supplies from Hartley Fort. The other men on the wagon were Private Platt, Sergeant Shannon and Sergeant-Major Handsley. As the wagon was coming through a forest, S-M Handsley suddenly jumped off and disappeared into the bush. They stopped and waited but he did not return. They tried to find him but failed, so they continued back to their squadron. A party was sent back that night to search for the missing man, volleys were fired and rockets sent up but to no avail. The next few days were spent in an attack on Mashongombi’s stronghold so it was not until after that that a proper daylight search could be conducted to find Handsley. Sergeant Surrett, Corporal Bone and 4 privates hurried back to Hartley Fort to retrace the route and search the area where he had disappeared to find any clues. They also had a scout called John Dusselboom who was able to track Handsley’s progress as far as the river. They went back to the Fort for the night and returned to the squadron the next day. The day after that the whole squadron under Major Carew scoured the countryside but had to return to camp and ponder on the fate of Sergeant-Major Handsley. Most thought he had been attacked and eaten by lions. At this point, who should walk in but Handsley himself, “absolutely worn out, and off his head. He was hatless, boots worn out, carried in his hand a broken bottle with water, and tucked in his shirt were a few wood apples.” He could not explain why he had got lost but said he took a wrong turn when he tried to return to the wagon. | |

Byford, ET | 7057 | Sergeant | Biography In August 1914 the 7th Hussars were stationed at Bangalore (Karnataka, India) having arrived there on 4 November 1911. The Regiment landed in India from England on 2 November 1911. By 1916, the Regiment was serving as part of the 4th (Meerut) Cavalry Brigade. On 4 October 1917, the 7th Hussars received orders to mobilise for service in Mesopotamia and moved to Karachi (Sindh, Pakistan) on 18 November 1917. The Regiment left India in three ships, all of which safely arrived at Basra, Mesopotamia (Iraq) the same month. On arrival, they joined the 11th Indian Cavalry Brigade which it served until December 1918 when they joined the 3rd Indian Cavalry Brigade. They stayed in Magil until December 6th and were busy during that period getting the men and horses fit and generally preparing for the march to Baghdad. During the march up the Tigris, the weather was generally very cold and after leaving Shaikh Saad on the 19th, heavy rains impeded their progress. On January 24th, they were met in Baghdad by the General Officer Commanding the 11th Cavalry Brigade and his staff. Then on March 4th, the 7th Hussars moved to Iron Bridge. The 7th Hussars was now about to take part in offensives against the Turks, whose main forces in Mesopotamia were lying principally in the valleys of the two great rivers of that region, the Euphrates and the Tigris. Khan Baghdadi Their first action against the Turks was at Khan Baghdadi on 25 March 1918 when the regiment outflanked and then helped dislodge the enemy from a strong defensive position. Sharqat The 7th Hussars were in action again on 28 October 1918 in the last clash with the Turks at Sharquat two days before they surrendered. Two squadrons dismounted and charged the enemy in a strongly entrenched position with such tenacity that they were forced to flee. View his Medal Group. |

Carew, GAL | Major | Biography Born on 10 March 1862. He was commissioned into the Hampshire Militia in 1879, and gazetted to the 7th Hussars as Lieutenant, 31 October 1883, becoming Captain in December 1889, and Major in April 1898. He took part in the operations in South Africa 1896-97 and was mentioned in despatches London Gazette on 9 March 1897. He commanded a column in the Mashonaland campaign of 1897, was again mentioned in despatches London Gazette 18 February 1898, received the medal with clasp and was created a Companion of the DSO London Gazette 20 May 1898: ‘In recognition of services during the operations in Mashonaland in 1897.’ ’I wish especially to convey my appreciation of the manner in which Major H. M. Ridley, Captains G. A. L. Carew and R. M. Poore and the officers and men of the 7th Hussars, carried out my wishes in every particular, and greatly assisted in the suppression of the rebellion. After Major Ridley was wounded, Captains Carew and Poore commanded separate columns, and in the attack on Mashingombi these officers timed their marches, and brought their forces into the field in such a manner as to render my plan of attack by three columns simultaneously entirely successful.’ (Despatch of Richard E. R. Martin, Deputy Commissioner, Bulawayo, November 15th, 1897). Mashingombi’s kraal was attacked and captured on 26 July 1897, by the police under Colonel de Moleyns, and the 7th Hussars under Captains Carew and Poore. On our side, one white was killed and five wounded; one died of wounds; two natives killed and three wounded. The Chief Mashingombi and many other rebels were killed. Major Carew served in the Boer War with the Rhodesian Field Force in 1900, as a Special Service Officer, and with the 7th Hussars in 1901-02. He retired in 1902. | |

Connaught, AFPA | HRH Prince | Biography Prince Arthur was the son of the Duke of Connaught and Strathearn who was the third son of Queen Victoria. He followed his father in holding a commission in the 7th Hussars, but whereas his father only served for a year (Apr 1874-May 1875), he remained there for 6 years, from 1901 to 1907. Arthur was born on 13th Jan 1883 and was the first member of the Royal family to be educated at Eton. He trained at Sandhurst and gained his commission into the 7th as a Second Lieutenant on 8th May 1901. The regiment entered the Boer War late, in November 1901, but Prince Arthur did not go with them. He remained at Aldershot with 8 other officers and 529 other ranks. He did go out later and was stationed in Krugersdorp for several months. The 7th stayed in South Africa until 1905, and in 1907 he was promoted to Captain, transferring to the Royal Scots Greys, on 27th April. In 1913 he married Princess Alexandra, Duchess of Fife who was the daughter of his cousin Louise, the Princess Royal. In the First World War, he was a Major, and ADC, first to Sir John French, and then to Sir Douglas Haig. He was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel in 1919 and in 1920 was appointed Governor General and Commander-in-Chief of the Union of South Africa. This post lasted until Dec 1923. On 8th Nov 1921 was made Colonel-in-Chief of the Scots Greys although the actual Colonel of the Regiment was Field Marshal Sir William Robertson. He predeceased his father by 4 years when he died of stomach cancer at the age of 55 on 12th Sep 1938. The title of Duke passed to his only son in 1942. | |
