English: Player's Cigarettes cigarette card showing a yeoman of the Royal North Devon Yeomanry (Hussars) in 1908 uniform.
The back of the card reads: "ROYAL NORTH DEVON YEOMANRY (HUSSARS), 1908 Now: 96th (Royal Devon Yeomanry) Field Regiment, R.A. The North Devon Yeomanry can claim a continuous existence since the formation on May 23rd, 1798, of a troop of Yeoman for local duties in Barnstaple and Bideford. Later they, with other Devon mounted units, were trained to meet a possible French landing. The regiment received the title “Royal” in 1856, and was trained and uniformed as a hussar unit. After the Great War the regiment was converted to artillery. The illustration is of our Chairman. It depicts him as he was 31 years ago. He served with this unit in the Great War. Bideford Bridge appears in the background." |
