Do the Strat's still have the riding troop? Just curious due to tight budgets, army reorg, manning numbers. etc. Have not heard anything about them, or if they still exist.
(Wait a minute.....could be a viable mode of transport in mountainous Asian countries........... hmmmmmm. >
- go anywhere mobility, cross country capable, swims, quiet, fuel efficient, no spare parts shortage, environmentally friendly, provides extra set of eyes & ears. (EMP proof) and not computer reliant- yet smarter than the operator, can be recycled....sort of. An easy sell to the bean counters in Ottawa)
(sharpen up that lance TCBF, kind of takes you back to your Trooper days battling Boers ;D)
Note: LdSH (RC) riding troop is a ceremonial troop that operates/performs on horseback and travels (limited) the country as goodwill ambassadors. It reflects the Armoured Regiments calvary roots.
