2:11th AC

The 2nd Squadron, 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment (2/11th ACR), known as the "Eaglehorse," has a distinguished history within the U.S. Army. Activated in 1901, the 11th ACR served in the Philippines, patrolled the Mexican border, and earned fame for its armored reconnaissance role during World War II in Europe. During the Vietnam War, 2/11th ACR provided security, reconnaissance, and combat operations, notably participating in major campaigns such as the Tet Offensive and the Cambodian Incursion. In recent decades, the squadron has been a vital component of the Opposing Force at the National Training Center, Fort Irwin, honing the skills of U.S. and allied units for modern warfare.
