Late on 31 October 1917 the 4th Light Horse Brigade was ordered to gallop towards Beersheba and seize the town. Two regiments, the 4th and the 12th, made the bold and successful charge, one of the last major cavalry charges in history. When he visited Beersheba in March 1918 Lambert had ridden the course the battle had taken for the light horsemen, jumping into the trenches in order to “get the spirit of the thing”.Lambert
