The USBS-12 - Union Cavalry depicts a mounted Union cavalryman during the American Civil War, representing the highly mobile troops who became an increasingly decisive force on the battlefields of the conflict.
During the early years of the war, Union cavalry units were primarily employed for reconnaissance, escort duties and protecting supply lines. As the conflict progressed, improved training, stronger leadership and better equipment transformed them into an aggressive and effective fighting force capable of matching their Confederate counterparts in both mounted and dismounted combat.
Armed with carbines, revolvers and sabres, Union cavalrymen played a pivotal role in some of the war's most significant campaigns. From the hard-fought cavalry engagements around Gettysburg to the relentless operations of Major General Philip Sheridan during the final year of the war, these mounted soldiers disrupted enemy communications, screened advancing armies and pursued retreating Confederate forces with remarkable effectiveness.
This beautifully sculpted figure captures the confidence and determination of a Union trooper in the field. The dynamic pose, authentic equipment and detailed horse combine to create a striking display piece that embodies the speed, mobility and spirit of Civil War cavalry.
Whether displayed on its own or as part of a larger mounted formation, USBS-12 - Union Cavalry is a superb addition for collectors of American Civil War history, mounted military figures and 19th-century warfare.
