Post War
The 7th Hussars stayed in Italy for a while then marched north ending up in June 1946 at Soltau, in northern Germany, as part of the occupying Army, where they spent a year before sailing back to Yorkshire after twelve years abroad in December 1947.
Two years of sorting out in England, with a large change in personnel, renewed the 7th Hussars for a five-year tour in Fallingbostel near Soltau before they were sent as the first Armoured Regiment in Hong Kong in 1954.
