The contingents provided by South Australia were as follows:

South Australia furnished her quota to the troops sent by Federated Australia in 1902 (see Commonwealth Horse).  A squadron under Captain De Passey sailed on 20th February, and having landed at Durban, was employed near Laing's Nek, and thereafter was railed to the Western Transvaal, where, as part of the Australian Horse, it took part under De Lisle and Thorneycroft in some great drives.  The second contribution was a squadron under Captain A E Collins, which sailed on 1st April 1902; while the third was two squadrons under Captain A E Cook, which sailed on 26th May.
