14th Cavalry

The 14th Cavalry Regiment was constituted on 2 February 1901 in the Regular Army of the United States and organized at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Throughout its history, the regiment has served in a variety of roles, including patrolling the Mexican border during the early 20th century and participating in World War II with reconnaissance duties in Europe. After several periods of inactivation and reactivation, the 14th Cavalry was reactivated in the 21st century as a reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition (RSTA) squadron within Stryker Brigade Combat Teams. The unit has deployed in support of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, continuing its legacy of adaptability and service.
