The Last Great Cavalry Charge by Lambert. On 31st October 1917, 800 men of the Australian Light Horse Brigade charged
entrenched Turko-German defences at Beersheba, Palestine. It was an 11th
hour attempt to capture vital water wells and save the attacking allied
forces from disaster. Under heavy fire from artillery, aircraft, machine
gun and rifle fire and against great odds, they successfully charged into
history, their losses were 31 dead, 36 wounded and 70 of their beloved
horses died.
