These men were referred to by the Plain's Indians as "Buffalo Soldiers" and that appelation stuck with them. They were combat troops of the first water. Mounted as cavalry untis & as mounted infantry units these Negro troopers were a mainstay in the old west. More needs to bt said about them & their contributuions to this nation! ]
