Default Soldiers of the 7th/21st Australian Horse - circa 1956/1957

Soldiers of the 7th/21st Australian Horse - circa 1956/1957.

You don't often see pictures of the unit and it's members.

Formed in July 1948, this unit was established as a reconnaissance regiment within the 2nd Division, and remained in existence until 15 September 1957 when it was disbanded; its personnel were later used to re-raise the 4th Infantry Battalion, which later became part of the Royal New South Wales Regiment.

Their insignia is hard to find as the unit probably only wore the hat and collar badges from around 1954/55 to 1957. Before that they wore a white metal Australian Military Forces "Rising Sun" hat badge on their black berets.

Enjoy!

Mick
