How Should Cavalry Act
Against Artillery?

Firing Into the Brown

by Donald Featherstone

As guns will always be supported by other troops, part of the attacking Cavalry should be directed against the covering party, and part against the guns. That against the guns should be in extended order, and that against the supports in a compact formation. The most suitable moment to obtain a decisive success against Artillery is when it is in movement, or when it has suffered heavily in men and horses.
