Sich Riflemen The Sich Riflemen Halych - Bukovyna Kurin ( ) were one of the first regular military units of the Army of the Ukrainian People ' s Republic . The unit operated from 1917 to 1919 and was formed from Ukrainian soldiers of the Austro - Hungarian army , local population and former commanders of the Ukrainian Sich Riflemen in Austria - Hungary . The first kurin was formed in Kiev on 13 November 1917 . Commanded by Col . Yevhen Konovalets , the Sich Rifles had up to 25 , 000 men at their peak , including artillery , cavalry , reconnaissance and machine gun units . The Sich Riflemen defended the government of UNR against the Bolshevik insurrection in the capital and later against regular Red Army forces that advanced into Ukraine in 1918 . When Kiev was recaptured in March 1918 the Ukrainian Sich Riflemen guarded government buildings in the capital and maintained order in the city . The unit later expanded to include two infantry detachments , a cavalry unit and an artillery battery . With the establishment of Hetmanate of Pavlo Skoropadsky the Sich Riflemen refused to serve him and were disarmed by the German forces that supported the hetman . Soldiers from the unit joined other forces , notably Second Zaporozhian Regiment of Petro Bolbochan and attempted to reestablish the unit under the new command . In August 1918 Skoropadsky finally allowed a partial reestablishment of the unit in Bila Tserkva . The new unit consisted of 1200 men and was divided into an infantry regiment , an artillery battery and a technical unit . In Bila Tserkva , the Sich Riflemen led the revolt against hetman Skoropadsky and the ranks of the unit increased by November 1918 to 11 , 000 . Later the two other Dnieper and Black Sea divisions joined the unit . In November 1918 with new recruits the ranks of the Riflemen swelled to 25 , 000 . It played a crucial role in the establishment of the Directorate under Symon Petlura . In December the unit captured Kiev and was subsequently divided into smaller units . Different detachments of the unit fought against advancing Bolshevik armies in Ukraine . Together with the Directory the Sich Riflemen fled from Kiev when it was recaptured by the Bolsheviks . The Riflemen also fought on different fronts against the White Russian forces of General Denikin . In 1919 the unit took heavy losses in combat and later from typhus . On 6 December 1919 the unit was finally demobilized . Some former soldiers were interned by the Polish army , others continued to fight in other smaller detachments in Ukraine .

Battle of Bornhöved ( 1813 ) The Battle of Bornhöved or Bornhöft was a battle on 7 December 1813 between a Swedish cavalry regiment under Bror Cederström and Prince Frederik of Hesse ' s Danish troops reinforced by smaller numbers of Polish cavalry and German infantry . The clash occurred at the small village of Bornhöft in what is now Schleswig - Holstein in north Germany . The engagement occurred during the War of the Sixth Coalition , part of the Napoleonic Wars , and was the last time Swedish and Danish forces met on the battlefield . Battle . Crown prince Charles John led a division of the northern armies , including the Mörners husarregemente ( later the Kronprinsens husarregemente ) , under the command of the commander of the Swedish cavalry Anders Fredrik Skjöldebrand , to pursue the retreating Danish army . The idea was for the Swedish cavalry to advance in parallel to the Danes until general Wallmoden could cut off their retreat and force the outmaneouvred Danes to surrender . Charles John had been very economical with Swedish forces throughout the war and deliberately held back to allow the allies to take huge losses whilst he held onto the Swedish forces for future use . The Swedish cavalry thus felt left out of all the war ' s previous major battles this in addition to their regiment not seeing combat in the 1808 - 9 war that lost Finland made them disobey their orders and ride straight against the Danish forces . It then clashed with the Danish rearguard ( made up of Polish ulan s , an elite force sent out by Napoleon to cover the Danish retreat ) throughout the day until in the evening the Swedes met the main Danish force gathered at Bornhöved . This 2 , 500 strong Danish force was made up of infantry , cavalry and artillery and would not normally have considered the advance guard of the Swedish cavalry as a major threat ( since in such difficult terrain and so close to nightfall a frontal cavalry assault on the massed infantry with artillery support would be pure folly ) , but since their rearguard was still embroiled in fighting with Swedish patrols the Danes formed up in ranks and waited . First came the Danish rearguard , still harried by some Swedish squadrons under major Fritz von der Lancken and finally disperesed by the Swedish assault . The attackers then turned on the main Danish force and the Danes staked all their forces at once , with a Swedish reconnaissance beaten off and von der Lancken in retreat . In the meantime the main Swedish force began to form up . With seven squadrons totalling 471 men , commanded by Colonel Bror Cederström , the Swedish cavalry immediately moved to the attack , broke up the Danish formations and drove them into retreat . The Swedish victory at Bornhöved came to be an important step towards Sweden ' s goal of taking Norway from Denmark , ultimately achieved in the Treaty of Kiel .
