1st Cavalry Division Metal Auto Decal “America’s First Team” 1st Cavalry Division units have served the nation from 1855 to the present, building a history rich in pride with solid ties to the traditions and heritage of the United States Cavalry. The famed 1st Cavalry Division was baptized by fire and blood on the western plains in an era of horse-mounted cavalry. Dubbed the “First Team” by Maj. Gen. William C. Chase, the division has always strived not only to be the first, but to be the best. The division’s roots date back to 1855 when the 2nd Cavalry Regiment was organized. Redesignated as the 5th Cavalry in 1861, this unit participated in a number of famous Civil War engagements, including Bullrun, Antietam, Gettysburg, Wilderness and Appomattox.*Approx 50mm/2″ height, chrome plated, zinc alloy, enamel paint*Attaches with 3M adhesive
