<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marcantica, post: 1719196, member: 27941&quot;]Hi Christian, </p><p>During the revolution of 1830 Civilian Militias (vigilante) were created in order to maintain order (public security), to prevent riots and looting after all Belgium did not have an Army at that point. Part of these Civilian Militias was the company of hunters-Pathfinders. This company consisted of riders who belonged to the local nobility and bourgeoisie. At the return of peace the company was not dissolved, but its activities limited themselves to occasionally play and parade peacefully. </p><p>So 25 years later, this Company of hunter-Pathfinders (<b>COMPAGNIE DE CHASSEURS) </b>had something to celebrate: the <b><i>25th Anniversary of Independence of Belgium, </i></b>after all they owned their existence due to the Independence.</p><p><br /></p><p>Best regards,</p><p>Marc[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
