Meet Nimrod, a typical horse in the Household Cavalry Mounted
Regiment. He's big, black and brave, yet steady as a rock. But
what's his story, and how is he trained for his special military
role? The Household Cavalry is a uniquely British institution,
famous around the world for its outstanding pageantry and gallantry
on the battle field. Its 250 horses, known as Cavalry Blacks, are
central to its existence, and visitors to London flock to see these
magnificent horses taking part in ceremonies and routine guarding
activities. Little is known about how they are chosen, trained and
what their duties - as full members of their regiment - entail.
Here in words and pictures Juliet Blaxland fills in the background
to their life and work, providing a fascinating insight into the
world of the Household Cavalry horse.
