Buffalo Soldier is a nickname originally given to the
members of the US Cavalry Black Regiments by the Native American tribes they
fought. Throughout the era of the Indian wars, twenty percent of the US Cavalry
troopers were black, and fought in over 177 engagements. The combat prowess,
bravery, tenaciousness, and looks on the battlefield inspired the natives to
call them “Buffalo Soldiers”. Many Indians believe the name symbolizes the
Native American respect for the Buffalo Soldiers bravery and valor. Buffalo Soldiers
down through the years have worn the name with pride.
