Yesterday, we welcomed 59 Troopers assigned to the 1st Cavalry Division and 3d Cavalry Regiment after completing the Pegasus Integration Troop in-processing.
“You may have noticed an additional patch on the field today alongside the big yellow patch. It’s the patch of the 3d Cavalry Regiment. In keeping with the tradition established during World War II by General George Patton Jr. to approve the wear of a distinctive regimental patch, today the new members of the #BraveRifles will be patched with their unit patch.”
Said Maj. Gen. John B. Richardson IV, 1st Cavalry Division commanding general.
