The New Zealand Mounted Rifles Brigade was a brigade of horsemen from the New Zealand Army during the First World War. Raised in 1914 as part of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force, it was one of the first New Zealand units to sail for service overseas.
Military historian Dr. Damien Fenton spoke with Bryan Crump about the New Zealand Mounted Rifle Brigade about its experiences in the Sinai-Palestine Campaign between 1916-1918.
