Slade, WH | Captain | Biography William Hicks Slade progressed through the army through a combination of purchase, exchange and appointment. It was not until the Cardwell reforms of 1871 that promotion would be based on merit. The change was largely driven by the disasters of the Crimean Campaign and the need for something better. During the course of his career William Slade regularly exchanged one commission for another in a different regiment. He initially joined the 3rd Dragoon Guards as a Cornet in 1847, transferred to the 3rd Light Dragoons in 1849 as a Lieutenant then joined the 6th Dragoons as a Captain in 1855. In 1857 he was appointed as a Captain in the 7th Hussars, exchanged to the 5th Lancers in 1858 and was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel in 1863. He retired by sale of Commission in 1868. He served in the Crimean Campaign with the 6th Dragoons and was present at the siege and capture of Sebastopol being awarded the Crimean Medal with clasp and the Turkish War Medal. He served with the 7th Hussars during the Indian Mutiny and was present at the relief of Lucknow. He was severely wounded by a sword cut to the left thigh at the Moosa Bagh and was one of the two senior officers incapacitated such that command fell to Cornet William Banks.
