Being in Cavalry unit means having tradition everywhere you look! We were in an infantry until at Hood and maybe it was the unit and maybe it was the fact that is was infantry but I never felt as close and wrapped in tradition as I do in the 11ACR. Blackhorse soldiers are that forever it seems. Every year they get together, past soldiers and visit Ft. Irwin and the party it up in Vegas. While they are visiting Irwin they get a tour of "the box" and enjoy a yummy DFAC (dining facility) lunch and watch a Cavalry charge and demonstration by the Horse Detachment!

We were offered the chance to fund raise at the show and our FRG baked and baked and managed to raise some money even though it was windy and cold in June (the 2nd to be exact!)

Just for the record Clayton was at camp...I didn't forget to take pictures of him!
