| On 21 Feb 1900, C Squadron made a charge with the lance on a group of Boers who were part of De Wet’s force. This was the first and almost the last time that the lancers actually caused injuries to the enemy with this weapon in the Boer War. This illustration is from the cover of Louis Creswicke’s history, South Africa and the Transvaal War. |
