The 9th Cavalry Regiment is a parent cavalry regiment of the United States Army. Historically, it was one of the Army's four segregated African-American regiments and was part of what was known as the Buffalo Soldiers. The regiment saw combat during the Indian and SpanishAmerican Wars. During Westward Expansion, the regiment provided escort for the early western settlers and maintained peace on the American frontier. The one hundred man detachment from the 9th Cavalry served to teach future officers at West Point riding instruction, mounted drill and cavalry tactics until 1947. The 9th Cavalry was stationed at Camp Stotsenburg, Philippines, as of June 1919. From 3 April 1921 to 11 October 1922, Brigadier General Edward Anderson commanded the regiment.[17] The regiment departed Manila on 12 October 1922 on the troopship USAT Logan and arrived on 11 November 1922 at San Francisco, California. It was transferred to Fort Riley, and arrived there on 15 November 1922. The regiment absorbed just over 200 troopers of the Cavalry School Detachment (Colored) on 1 December 1922. From 1922 to 1940, the regiment served as the Cavalry School support and demonstration regiment. It was assigned to the 3rd Cavalry Division on 18 August 1933. It supported and supervised the training of the Colored Citizens Military Training Camps at Fort Riley from 193436 and in 1938. It was relieved from the 3rd Cavalry Division on 10 October 1940 and assigned to the 2nd Cavalry Division.[ Please ask specific questions on details, condition, and shipping prior to bidding, ALL ITEMS ARE SOLD AS IS, and the bidder will be responsible for payment.
