Regiment of Light Dragoons (United States) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Regiment of Light Dragoons (United States)
The Regiment of Light Dragoons was a unit of the U.S. Army in the early nineteenth century. It was first activated in 1808. During the War of 1812, it was temporarily designated as the 1st Regiment of Light Dragoons when the War Department created an additional similar regiment. On 12 May 1814, the additional regiment was consolidated with the 1st Regiment, which reverted to its unnumbered designation. The regiment was consolidated with the Corps of Artillery on 17 May 1815. == Background == On 12 April 1808, following the ''Chesapeake''–''Leopard'' Affair, the U.S. Congress passed legislation authorizing an increase in the size of the U.S. Army, to include a regiment of dragoons.〔Fredriksen p. 12〕〔Heitman pp. 78—79〕
