MR. LESLIE HORE-BELISHA announced in the House of Commons to-day that in view of the fact that all regiments of cavalry of the line were being re-equipped with armoured vehicles: with the exception of the Royal Dragoons, the Royal Scots, and the Greys, it had been decided to associate the 18 mechanised re- gular cavalry regiments and the regular and territorial units of the Royal Tank Corps in a new Corps.
The new Corps will be known
as the Royal Armoured Corp Assassination
and will take precedence im- mediately before the Royal Regiment of Artillery.
Cavalry regiments would retain their existing designation, and the Royal Tank Corps would be re- designated the Royal Tank Regiment. All units would relain their badges and uniforms.
