Description
A campfire sketch by Frederic Remington, 1888. Buffalo Soldiers originally were members of the US 10th Cavalry Regiment of the United States Army. This nickname was given to the "Negro Cavalry" by the Native American tribes they fought in the Indian Wars. From 1866-90s, these regiments served at a variety of posts in the Southwestern US and the Great Plains regions. Thirteen enlisted men and six officers from these four regiments earned the Medal of Honor during the Indian Wars. In addition to the military campaigns, the Buffalo Soldiers served a variety of roles along the frontier, from building roads to escorting the U.S. mail. Century Magazine, April 1889.
