Actually that's perfectly logical - someone has to keep the horses  It's the same situation as with Motorcycle units.
(For example during and after the American Civil War, the cavalry usually deployed dismounted, forming a skirmish line, with 1 man out of 4 (or, in extreme cases, of 5) keeping horses. |
That is EXACTLY why it was done that way......here I was thinking evenyone knew you had to leave a man to deal with the horses when the troops dismounted and WHY would they disappear??? The whole point of dismountable cavalry was to allow troops to dismount AND REMOUNT.
