HC Deb 16 February 1900 vol 79 c222
SIR BRAMPTON GURDON () Norfolk, N.

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether, if the three regiments of Household Cavalry are to be, brought up to full strength with a view to employment on active service, opportunity will lie taken to abolish the cuirass, which, is useless in the time of war, and prevents the proper wearing of medals in times of peace.

MR. WYNDHAM

It is not proposed to make any change in the home uniform of Her Majesty's personal troops.
