    The Buffalo Soldiers served with distinction in various military campaigns.
    They fought in the Indian Wars, Spanish-American War, and the
    Philippine-American War, displaying bravery and valor in battles across the American West and beyond. Additionally, they contributed to
    infrastructure development and protected national parks. Despite facing
    racial discrimination, their resilience and dedication to duty exemplify
    their lasting legacy as symbols of African American courage, inspiring
    the struggle for civil rights and equality in the United States.

    Formed in 1866 after the Civil War, the Buffalo Soldiers
    represented the first peacetime all-black regiments in the U.S. Army. Comprising the 9th and 10th Cavalry and the 24th and 25th Infantry Regiments, they served with distinction and
    resilience.

    Today, we remember and honor the
    Buffalo Soldiers’ sacrifices and
    contributions, acknowledging their pivotal role in shaping our nation’s history. Let their legacy continue to motivate us to stand united against prejudice and work towards a more just and equitable future for all.
