In the First World War both regiments served on the Western Front, and in the Second World War the 15th\/19th operated as an armoured regiment in North Africa and North-West Europe. The regiment amalgamated into the Light Dragoons in 1992, carrying a hussar tradition of speed, dash and independent action that stretches back over two and a half centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis regimental tie carries the 15th\/19th's colours with the hussar spirit that has always defined light cavalry at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: approx. 3.5″ (9cm) at widest point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 56″ (142cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Polyester, fully lined\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: Dry clean only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMOD Licensed\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an official MOD Licence holder, every badge and insignia on this tie is used under strict licence terms. \u003cstrong\u003e8% of every sale is donated annually to the MOD, distributed to military welfare charities.\u003c\/strong\u003e Buying this tie honours the 15th\/19th King's Royal Hussars and the light cavalry tradition they carried forward.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FatChimp \u0026 Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57139266716026,"sku":"sku-58439735935301","price":25.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0855\/4684\/files\/15_19th.jpg?v=1785774024","url":"https:\/\/www.fatchimp.co.uk\/products\/15th-19th-the-kings-royal-hussars-regimental-tie","provider":"Fat Chimp Forces Wear \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
