18th Cavalry Regiment - Reconnaissance Excellence
The 18th Cavalry Regiment is a parent cavalry regiment of the United States Army.
The 1st Squadron, 18th Cavalry Regiment, is the reconnaissance element of the 79th Infantry Brigade Combat Team of the California Army National Guard. Prior to the most recent reorganization of the United States Army National Guard the unit was an aviation unit. It was equipped with AH-1F Cobras, and formed part of the 40th Infantry Division's Aviation Brigade.
Swift and Deadly - Cavalry Spirit
The 18th Cavalry Regiment embodies the motto "Swift and Deadly," representing the cavalry's ability to move rapidly, strike with precision, and accomplish the mission with aggressive action. Cavalry soldiers are trained to conduct reconnaissance missions, gather intelligence on enemy forces, and provide security for larger formations.
Reconnaissance is one of the most critical missions in ground combat. Cavalry soldiers operate ahead of main forces, scouting enemy positions, identifying threats, and providing commanders with the intelligence they need to make tactical decisions. They must be able to move quickly, operate independently, and fight when necessary to accomplish their mission.
California Army National Guard - Citizen Soldiers
As part of the California Army National Guard, soldiers of the 18th Cavalry Regiment serve as citizen soldiers, balancing civilian careers with military service. They train regularly to maintain proficiency in cavalry operations, deploy when called upon to support state and federal missions, and maintain the proud traditions of the cavalry.
National Guard cavalry units have deployed to combat zones around the world, conducting reconnaissance missions in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other theaters. They have demonstrated that citizen soldiers can perform at the same high level as active duty forces, earning respect and recognition for their service.
Whether you serve or served with the 18th Cavalry Regiment, are a cavalry soldier, or appreciate the critical role of reconnaissance in ground combat, this mug represents cavalry excellence, reconnaissance proficiency, and the proud legacy of Swift and Deadly.
