4th Squadron. Blackhorse. Always Forward.
The 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment — the Blackhorse — is one of the most storied cavalry units in the United States Army. From the jungles of Vietnam to the Fulda Gap to the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, the Blackhorse has set the standard for armored cavalry operations for over a century. The 4th Squadron is an integral part of that legacy — a combined arms force built for reconnaissance, security, and decisive action across the full spectrum of operations.
This mug carries the 4th Squadron, 11th ACR designation — a daily tribute to the troopers who rode under the Blackhorse guidon. Whether you served in the 4th Squadron or you’re honoring someone who did, this is the mug that belongs on your table.

About the Unit
The 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment was activated in 1901 and has served in every major U.S. conflict from the Philippine-American War through Vietnam and beyond. Today the regiment serves as the permanent OPFOR (Opposing Force) at the National Training Center, Fort Irwin, California — the U.S. Army’s premier large-scale combat training environment. The 4th Squadron operates as part of the regiment’s combined arms structure, providing the Blackhorse with the reconnaissance and security capabilities that have defined cavalry operations for generations. The regiment’s motto: “Allons!” — French for “Let’s go!”
