The Scinde Horse is an armoured regiment in the Armoured Corps of the Indian Army. The regiment, known before independence as the 14th Prince of Wales's Own Scinde Horse was a regular cavalry regiment of the Bombay Army, and later the British Indian Army.
Scinde Horse is the only regiment known to honour its enemy till date (the Baluchi warrior on its badge) and has not changed its badge since its raising. At one point, the regiment carried nine Standards while on parade (regiments normally hold one), a unique privilege given to it for its valour. The regiment was the first cavalry unit of the British Indian Army to be mechanized (at Rawalpindi, in 1938). It was also the first cavalry regiment to get the President of India's Standard after independence.
