War and the Horse at Dover Castle
Discover our events at Dover Castle: http://ow.ly/BgUwZ
Witness the powerful imagery and confidence of the Cavalry of 1914 as they prepare to dominate the battlefields of Europe, little aware of the way in which the machine gun and barbed wire would sweep away their preconceptions. Young men race their horses and compete in Cavalry Skill at Arms, oblivious to the cataclysm about to engulf Europe.
Compare and contrast through the day as the Troopers change into the sombre khaki clothing that was to be evocative of the years to come. Glimpse into this world as we tell this remarkable story through re-enactment, talks, music and children’s activities.
In connection with the National Army Museum’s ‘War and Sikhs: Road to the Trenches’ project, we will also be recreating a regiment of First World War Sikh soldiers as it was in 1914 at the outbreak of War. We will be exploring their ancestors’ pasts and offering the chance to handle weapons and equipment from the period.
