Cavalry Regiments in the HEICo Army
In regular Cavalry Regiments there was single Colonel who was largely honorary. Below him were two Lt- Cols. Below them the Regiment was divided into two "Wings". Each Wing had a Major, 6-7 Captains, up to a dozen Lts and below these Cornets (who were effectively Trainees).
From among the Lts would be chosen an Adjutant and usually an Interprteter and Quarter-Master. In addition, the Regiment would have attached to it one or two Surgeons, a Veterinary Surgeon and a Riding Master.
