ing groundfighting arm
Thc Cavalry stays out in front
of the main Army exploring the
ground nhead Because of its ability
to move far and fast it is supposed
to spend a good portion of
time in the enemies rear lines
making a mess of things
To move being its prime function
a cavalry regiment needs thc
wherewithall to get places nnd
the job devolving on thc National
Defense Advisory Commission
in respect to the Cavalry is to
tell the Army where and when
and how it can procure that transportationWhen it comes to horses for the
horse cavalry the commission
bows to the Army They have
been buying and raising horseflesh
for so many years that they
know the name address and personal
history of every type horse

A cavalry division also has all

For example It has a field artillery

by trucks in a mechanized unit
The distinguishing mark of a cav

organization in the Army to see
that all the thousand and one articles
necssary to keep a cavalry
division in the running are handy
when and where they are needed
oven if a days run may put them
any place in 270000 square miles
bf territory But behind the Army
there must be another organization
ready to find the suppll >
the necessary quantity and get
them to where the Army can take
them over That is the job of the
National Defense Advisory Commission
And it has to be done
not only for the Cavalry but for
every other branch of the Army
and Navy as well That is why
thc Commission for instance has
recommended that supplies of
strategic materials be tucked away
