Office: 2 Room 113, first floor Academic Building WILLIAM BENNETT BIZZELL President of the College FRANK ©. MARTIN | Secretary of Publicity MESSAGE TO THE CAVALRY A FROM GENERAL PERSHING | To the Officers and Men of the | Cavalry: The cavalry of the French and | British was vital to their armies at | the opening of the war. The French | cavalry, by its stubborn rear-guard | fighting, aided the army commanders | to regroup their forces and turn about to meet and defeat the enemy at the Marne. In the north, the British cavalry, screening the British armies, assisted their withdrawl. In the race to the sea, after Von Kluck had failed in his initial man- euver, again the cavalry played an important role by giving the corps necessary time to commanders the rush up the infantry to close the front. Generally speaking, the character of the World War afforded little op- portunity for the employment of cavalry as compared to the oppor- tunities given other arms. When one thinks of the World War today, it is usually in terms of trenches and devastated areas, over which was waged a bitter and tragic struggle, with the artillery and the infantry as the chief participants. The contest became a war between entire nations, and all of the talent and genius of each was invoked to perfect implements that might turn the tide of victory. New mechanical appliances were invented and others already in use were developed to the highest degree. The use of gas, tanks, machine guns, and areoplanes and increased proportions of artil- lery and motor transport all marked the activities of the opposing forces to obtain the advantage. Lastly, as always, it was the infantry that as- sured the victory. During this period all arms had a chance for development and employ- ment except the cavalry, so that to some unthinking persons the day of the cavalry to have passed. Nothing could farther. from the truth. The splendid work of the cavalry in the few weeks of the war more than justified its existence and the expense of its upkeep in the years of peace preceding the war. The Am- erican theory for the employment of cavalry is correct, and Allied alry would have been of even gret-| er use in the early months of seems be cav- the war, if it had been trained as Am- erican cavalry is trained. In our training the necessity mobility must strongly empha- | sized. All our cavalrymen should be | trained alike and imbued with the same doctrines of tactics. It is essential that large cavalry com- | mands be maneuvered tor | be in conjunc- tion with the other arms, and team- work with large units of the other arms developed. I have recommend- | ed to Congress that a Chief of Cav- alry be appointed, and I hope that in | PRIN J J J J # ENROLLMENT AT A.

Due to the lack of tonnage, have little cavalry in France. Only a few regiments formed a part of the A. E. F., and they were necessarily engaged chiefly on remount duty. | | A squadron of the 2nd Cavalry par-| ticipated in the St. Mihiel attack with great credit. Once in the there were several occasions where cavalry could have been of great val- ue to us in pursuit northward toward the Meuse. In any future war on the American nent, the use of cavalry will be as important as it has been in the past. It should be of due proportion to the other arms and be kept in a state of preparedness. Individual cavalry officers gave every proof in this war of the high- est military attainments and general- ly demonstrated that their profes- sional knowledge was thorough in every respect. With their ripe ex- perience, it is earnestly hoped that they will profit by the lessons of the war applicable to their arm, and that they will endeavor to keep up to its former standard the heretofore un- diminished prestige of the cavalry.
