the parade is led by the posts of 10th Mounted Riflemen Regiment and 24th Regiment of Lancers from Kraśnik.

In the home garrisons, the brigade units trained soldiers intensively, especially as many reservists who reached a high level of proficiency in summer and autumn left after partial demobilisation.

    Photo DRM573 dates back to 1938–1939, similarly to photo DRM 1901_039. The photo shows the uniforms of the motor and armoured forces. Officers and mounted riflemen were wearing uniforms resembling those of the armoured units, i.e. double-breasted black leather jackets model 36, officers wore black coats lined with black cloth, breeches and long boots, while riflemen and non-commissioned officers wore trousers with clips and laced-up boots. The uniforms were combined with German helmets model 1916 or black berets model 37. To emphasise the “horse-riding origin”, spurs were worn in units of 10th Mounted Brigade.

Similar uniforms were worn by the riflemen of 10th Mounted Riflemen Regiment and 24th Lancers Regiment (DRM-573) during the parade in Rzeszów (ul. 3 Maja, 3rd May celebrations in 1938 or 1939), the parade is led by the posts of 10th Mounted Riflemen Regiment and 24th Regiment of Lancers from Kraśnik.
