107 years ago today, the last great cavalry charge took place in the battle of Beersheba on 31 October 1917, part of the wider British offensive collectively known as the third Battle of Gaza. Beersheba was a heavily fortified town 43 kilometres from the Turkish bastion of Gaza. It anchored the right end of a defensive line that stretched from Gaza on the Mediterranean coast. The first two frontal attacks on Gaza, in March and April 1917, failed. The British Army re-organised before trying again
