Excerpt from Historical Record of the First or the Royal Regiment of Dragoons: Containing an Account of Its Formation in the Reign of King Charles the Second, and of Its Subsequent Services to the Present Time
The conduct of the Royal Regiment of Dragoons during the short but transcendent campaign of 1815 in the Netherlands, ending in the closing triumphs of Waterloo, in which they captured one of the two Eagles taken that day, is written in characters which can perish but with the world itself, and the part lately taken by the small detachment of the corps employed in the operations in Egypt in 1884-85 is worthy of its reputation.
