Dime Novel Legends Cavalry Officer Figure

Product Description

First as Mounted Rangers, then Dragoons and Mounted Riflemen, the US Army Cavalry was a potent force used for peacekeeping and expansion in the American West. During the mid-century campaigns, the officer corps of this mounted force were often college graduates from military academies and schools with long traditions of training men for service. The Cavalry Officers of a company were responsible for day-to-day management of troops and resources, as well as ordering and executing mission objectives at the Troop level when directives were handed down from senior officers and policy makers.
