New Delhi, Nov 21 (IBNS): A wreath laying ceremony was organised on Friday at the 'Teen Murti' Memorial by the Cavalry Officer's Association (COA) to honour the sacrifice and contribution of the Indian Cavalry since the First World War.

The Indian Cavalry has a long and awe-inspiring history of valour and panache.  ‘Teen Murti’ memorial was instituted in memory of the Cavalry officers, Non Commissioned Officers and men of the 15th Imperial Service Cavalry Brigade composed of Cavalry Regiments from the Indian States of Hyderabad, Mysore and Jodhpur and with detachments from Bhavnagar, Kashmir and Kathiawar who gave their lives in the ‘Great War’ of 1914-1919 in the Sinai, Palestine and Syria. 

The contribution of the armoured corps is reflected by the gallantry awards earned by the Corps since independence which includes Two Param Vir Chakras, 15 Mahavir Chakras, One Kirti Chakra and 60 Vir Chakras.

The memorial service, wherein wreaths were placed by serving and retired officers of the Cavalry fraternity was a solemn ceremony, marked by poise and grace.
