Lighthorseman  AL006 

Description: Dismounted and still fighting

His dead mount at his feet this Lighthorseman still has plenty of Aussie fighting spirit.

Australian Light Horse were mounted troops with characteristics of both cavalry and mounted infantry. They served during the Second Boer War and World War I. The Australian 4th Light Horse Brigade at the Battle of Beersheba in 1917 made what is the most well known successful cavalry charge in the Great War.
