Standard field equipment is also covered, followed by a chapter devoted to the individual and crew-served weapons utilized by the German airborne forces.

(Subject: Uniforms, Dress & Insignia - General) The southerner of the mid-19th century had been bred to ride horses and had long been used to handling firearms, through hunting for pleasure, food or simply for sport. The combination of these factors promised that when the southern states began to secede in December 1860, the cavalry would be a major combat arm. This title looks at how the men of the Confederate cavalry were recruited, trained, lived and fought. Routine and campaign life are covered, as well as the weapons and equipment. Key encounters such as the 1863 clash at Brandy Station are also covered. (Published: 2002) (Publisher: Osprey) (ISBN: 1841763810) (Pagination: 64pp ills) (Condition: new in card covers) UL-XXXXXX
