POPSOct. 31, 1917: a Page in Military History "1917: Australian mounted troops take Beersheba, Palestine, by launching what is often billed as the last successful cavalry charge in military history. This claim is disputed, however, depending on what is meant by "successful cavalry charge." Both the Russians and Germans had limited, small-scale successes using mounted troops during World War II, although nothing approaching the scale of Beersheba." Then again, the Light Horse were not cavalry, but mounted infantry.
