What is History of the U.S. Cavalry about?

In Europe horses were used in cavalry roles since the Middle Ages and even earlier in Roman times. The Revolutionary War saw the use of horses as mounts for officers and messengers but no role in the War as fought in the northern theater. Credited to Henry Lee and later his son was the use of the horse for warfare. The US Cavalry has been in battles since then until a gradual phasing out as the military turned to tanks, bikes and other motorized transport. In 1942 the office of the Chief of Cavalry was eliminated and post WWII all cavalry units were absorbed into other military units. A glorious several centuries of tradition and excellence in warfare.
