Before the fight at CarrfZal,. Ameri,
cans had often heard of the Tenth
United States cavalry. To such Of us
as, from inclination or employment,
keep in touch with the present by re-
~membering the past which made it,
when the word came from the border
that a detachment of the Tenth cav
airy had made a glorious fight against
a sudden and unexpected attack by a
much superior force, the thought came
at once, "the Tenth Why, that is the
same regiment that distinguished itself
mt Las Guasimas, and FL Caney, and
on the heights of San Juan" Because
the American mind is too prone to ex-
alt the volunteer forces-the citizen
soldiers-above the professional fight
ing men in the regular ranks. and to
give to a patriotic outburst u place
above what it calls "a standing army"
the popular imagination seized upon
the brilliant exploits of our volunteers
in Cuba-notably the Rough Riders
as better representing the national
spirit.
But in the Army Reports, that place
where justice is done all men who go
out to battle for their country, the
truth about the Tenth in the Spanish
war is embalmed. Maj. Frank Keck,
who has seer much service, told the
story somewhat in detail in the Sun
day Globe-Democrat. 1t is the most
infpraCtinn stony hnouY-o IL 1900 Co.
back of the Spanish war to find the
origins of that morale and discipline,
and that self-sacrticing courage, which
made the Tenth United States cavalry
what it was in Cuba, later in the Phil
ippines, and what it is now in Mexico.
Linking the present with a long past,
far-tiung over many fields, Major Keck
has shown US how the regular soldier
of the United States army can be de-
veloped into, or, rather, will develop
himself into, a fighting unit not to be
surpassed in war. Much of the story
is in the history of the Indian wars
which for years followed the close of
the war between the states; when the
most warlike tribes, under the leader
ship of such great chiefs as Sitting
Bull, Red Cloud, Cochise and Geron-
limo, waged strong warfare against the
paleface then beginning a great inva-
sion of the buffalo lands. 1t was a
of swooping attacks, sudden for
avs, long and hard rides, sleepless and
waterless days and nights, with now
and then such a pitched battle as at
the Rosebud. A war for cavalrymen-
and the Fighting Tenth was in it and
Of it all.
For that gallant regiment was organ
lied the year following the close of
the Civil war, made up of colored
troops who had fought in the federal
army. Those who were in it are not
in 1t now. They have died the death
swift or slow, or fallen out of the
ranks as outworn troopers. But the
regiment has remained, always made
up of colored men, differed by West
Pointers and white noncoms, and al
ways to be found where glory leads the
way. AT every point of action the
Tent has been seen, and always to ad-
vantage. Other regular army regi-
ments have made glorious records. It's
a way the United States regulars, of
all colors, have. But these. our broth
ers in black, have won a special need
of praise.
