Re: Mass desertion in the 36th Cav.

I think I may have done the same thing in that situation. These men enlisted with their own horses, and a Texan can understand how a man feels about his horse. So you enlist and down the way, they go back on their word, and change your unit from mounted Cavalry (With your personal horse) to dismounted Cavalry (afoot) and lose your own horse! NOT FAIR!! No wonder. I would be very, very upset! Merkel Walters from Texas
