The brigade was formed as the 22nd Heavy Armoured Brigade on 3 September 1939 with three Yeomanry (Territorial Army) mechanised cavalry regiments – 2nd Royal Gloucestershire Hussars, 3rd County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters) and 4th County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters).[1] HistorySecond World WarThe 22nd Armoured Brigade fought in the Western Desert Campaign under command at various times of the 7th, 1st and 10th Armoured Divisions (remaining with the 7th Armoured Division from El Alamein onwards), the Italian Campaign through to the campaign in North West Europe.
