Austrailian Lt. Horse Charge - Beersheba

"The light horse were mounted infantry. They would normally dismount to fight. The Turks where not expecting them to charge all the way. The horses had been without water for a day and this was a final effort to take Beersheba. The horses smelled the water of the wells in Beersheba and there was no stopping them once the charge commenced. The Turks did not lower their rifle sights as the horses charged in, the artillery either did not lower their sights or couldn't lower them quickly enough." - You Tube comments

"Only 36 killed and 31 wounded for the Light Horsemen. Over 500 Turks killed and 2000 captured. " - You Tube comments
