March 27, 2018 | 0:58
Troopers from 2nd Squadron, 14th Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division honors the history of the Cavalry by participating in a Spur Ride. This Tradition dates back to the time of the Mounted Cavalry where new Troopers were given a horse with a shaved tail to indicate that they were inexperienced in mounted techniques. By the time the horse’s tail grew back, the Trooper would have proved his competence with his steed and earned the right to wear spurs.
