Maj. Gen. John M. Murray, commanding general of the 3rd Infantry Division, presents 1st Sgt. Sean Jarvis, Troop B, 3rd Squadron, 1st Cavalry Regiment, first sergeant, with the Draper Leadership Book, March 27, in front of the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team headquarters. The soldiers of Troop B "Bonecrushers" were presented the Fiscal Year 2013 Draper Armor Leadership Award. The Draper Armor Leadership Award was established in 1924 by Lt. Col. Wickliffe P. Draper as a means to competitively test the leadership of small Cavalry units. The test was oriented to the platoon level of Horse Cavalry. The first Cavalry Leadership Test for small units was held at Fort Riley, Kan., the then-home of the Cavalry School. Today, the Draper Armor Leadership Award is given annually to promote, sustain, and recognize excellence in leadership in Armor and Cavalry units.
