This page is designed for the Present as well as for the future
Cavalry Trooper.It will contain information as how to get into a unit
as well as information on upcoming events.It MUST be remembered that
this is a hobby that can get expensive at times.On the other hand it
is a hobby that can be enjoyed by the entire Family.
For the new Trooper
The hobby known as civil war re-enacting is a very rewarding one.
At most events the entire family is welcome to participate. You are
not required to go out and buy everything that is needed at once you
will have plenty of time to get all your gear together. Also it is
not neccesary to own a horse. A lot of people have started out in the
dismounted Cavalry. A mounted Cavalry Trooper may spend well over
2000 Dollars before they have everything that is required (minus the
horse).It is recommended that you only get what you need to avoid
having to drag it in and out of the field.AGAIN at first you will
think "well I have to have that".Check with your 1st Sgt before you
buy anything.Some items may be purchased used saving a lot of
money.Scroll Through these pages to find what you need and where to
get it.
