FWIW, I served with the 17/21 Lancers (although not at the time of the Charge! ;D). Absolutely the most professional military group I ever served with.

SJ,
This article was very interesting to me for several reason, not the least of which was that I also served with the 16/5th when I was in Germany in the 80s (it replaced the 17/21st at the same post in Wolfenbuettel). However, it says in Wikipedia that the 16th and the 5th were not amalgamated until 1993. So I don't know what that means unless when I was there it was still considered a provision unit. I don't remember seeing anything in any of their insignia that stated that.
