Units history?

[Commandingtripod]

Where these real units or did Wells' pull them out of thin air:

8th Hussars
12th Horse Artillery

Any history that they have I would love to know.
As far as I know, these are the only units that I can find in the book that have a numbered unit.

8TH HUSSARS (Queens/Kings Royal Hussars):

12TH ROYAL HORSE ARTILLERY:

This is a site relating to various RHA regiments.
www.regiments.org/regiments/uk/art-eng-sig/RHA.htm

Here's a major battle in 1917 that the RHA were involved in and the 12th get a mention.

So the regiments mentioned appear to be at least based on real regiments.
