Light Horsemen = (in the context of the 20th Century) mounted infantry (e.g. the Australian Light Horse, which usually operated as mounted infantry, but was also used in cavalry roles); can also refer to the personnel of some armoured vehicle units (e.g. the Australian 2nd/14th Light Horse Regiment)
