USBS-06 - Union Cavalry
A superb mounted figure capturing the growing confidence and battlefield skill of the Union cavalry during the American Civil War.
By 1863, the cavalry of the Army of the Potomac had evolved from a scattered scouting force into a formidable fighting arm capable of challenging the celebrated Confederate horsemen led by J.E.B. Stuart. The turning point came during the Battle of Brandy Station on 9 June 1863, the largest cavalry battle ever fought on American soil and a key prelude to the Gettysburg Campaign.
Union cavalrymen were armed with carbines, revolvers and sabres, giving them the flexibility to fight both mounted and dismounted. Their growing professionalism and aggressive tactics would prove vital during the campaigns that followed, helping secure the Union’s eventual victory.
This figure captures a Union trooper in the midst of action, mounted and ready for battle. The dynamic pose, detailed equipment and spirited horse make it a standout piece for collectors of Civil War cavalry, Gettysburg-era campaigns and 19th century military history.
Whether displayed as a single showcase figure or as part of a larger cavalry scene, USBS-06 - Union Cavalry brings the drama and movement of America’s defining conflict to life.
