Formed in September 1993 by merging The Queen’s Own Hussars and The Queen’s Royal Irish Hussars, the senior light cavalry regiment in the British Army is The Queen’s Royal Hussars (The Queen’s Own and Royal Irish).

The amalgamation brought together the four senior Hussar Regiments of our forebears, 3rd The King’s Own Hussars, the 4th Queen’s Own Hussars, the 7th Queen’s Own Hussars and the 8th King’s Royal Irish Hussars, who had so often fought side by side in the campaigns of the past 339 years.
