Cavalry Commissions Sold At High Prices In Britain

A London letter to the National Intelligencer outlines prices paid for British army commissions. A Life Guards and Blues first commission costs not listed, but other mounted corps reach £340 for first commissions, £1700–£1800 for lieutenancies, £5590–£7000 for captains, £8000–£9000 for majors, and £10,000–£12,600 for corps commands. It alleges Lords Cardigan and Lucan paid £10,000–£12,000 for quick lieutenant colonel ranks, notes cavalry pay yields little relative to investment, and that regiments are expensive to live in, with cavalry often serving as social colleges for rich youths between school and marriage. The piece questions whether such regiments can be field-ready or endure severe campaigns, while praising the British cavalry’s performance in the past year.
