This past week, the 3rd Cavalry Regiment celebrated 175 Years since being constituted into the regular Army on May 19, 1846. The regiment also celebrated 30 years since crossing the berm and leading the corps to victory during Desert Storm. And 15 years since the Brave Rifles moved to Fort Hood from Fort Carson, Colorado, and five years since both men and women started serving in all military occupations.
âIt was a great week celebrating our 3rd Cavalry Regiment family,â Col. Kevin Bradley, 3rd Cav. Regt. commander, said. âItâs up to us to make the 3rd Cavalry Regiment the best cavalry regiment in the world. We do this by bringing everybody together; troopers, families and veterans. It helps them to make that connection when they have the opportunity to see what we do daily, why their job is important, why the training is important, and that way they understand what we are going off to do when our nation calls them to war.â
