Early on 1st September 1914, the Germans surprised 1st Cavalry Brigade harbouring in the little town of Nery. Their initial bombardment caused chaos and destruction and the British took time to organise themselves. The actions of two batteries of the Royal Horse Artillery were eventually so successful that even today there is a battery known as Nery Battery RHA. The Queen's Bays, a cavalry regiment, charged in classic style and the Germans - who mistakenly thought they were out-numbered - withdrew with heavy casualties.
