| Tomblings, E | Lieutenant Colonel | Biography Lieutenant Colonel Edward Tomblings joined the 8th King’s Royal Irish Hussars in 1878 as a 2nd Lieutenant in time to see service in the 2nd Afghan War. The 8th formed part of the Khyber Line Force tasked with keeping open lines of communication. A challenging campaign against the local Afghan tribesmen who harried them from the heights with their long jezail muskets. He was in action again during the Boer War. The 8th received orders to mobilise on the 26th of December 1899. On arrival in South Africa Captain and Riding Master Tomblings was specially asked for by Field Marshall Lord Roberts for employment with the re-mount Department. The supply of suitable cavalry horses was particularly difficult in South Africa. The Boers quickly reduced the number of available horses by their accurate rifle and artillery fire. 360,000 horses and 106,000 mules and donkeys had to be shipped into South Africa from England or Australia. The long sea voyage played havoc with their condition, and they were susceptible to the harsh desert conditions and disease. Those that did survive were often hard used by inexperienced troops and some Generals did not seem to understand that a horse needs water, fodder and care if it is to be effective. The average life expectancy of a British horse, from the time of its arrival in Port Elizabeth, was around six weeks. Edward Tomblings was charged with solving the problem. He went on to carry out a similar role during the Great War where the need was even greater. He started as Riding Master for the 8th Hussars, but his talents went on to serve the whole British Cavalry. View his Medal Group. | |
