Buffalo Soldiers __ Here you will find history and lore of the Famous Buffalo Soldiers of the American West.

To be associated with the fighting spirit of the Indian's sacred buffalo was a measure of respect."

Buffalo Soldiers and Indian Wars __ "In every major war, throughout the history of the United States, from the American Revolution through the Indian Wars, Native-Americans and African-Americans have fought with and against each other.

Buffalo Soldiers on the Western Frontier __ "Over 180,000 African-Americans served in the Union Army during the Civil War. Of these, more than 33,000 died. After the war, the future of African-Americans in the U.S. Army was in doubt. In July1866, however, Congress passed legislation establishing two cavalry and four infantry regiments (later consolidated to two) whose enlisted composition was to be made up of African-Americans. The majority of the new recruits had served in all Black units during the war. The mounted regiments were the 9th and 10th Cavalries, soon nicknamed Buffalo Soldiers by the Cheyenne and Comanche. Until the early 1890s they constituted 20 percent of all cavalry forces on the American frontier."
