Yep, Hall of Fame weekend. One of my classmates is being inducted -- more than 20 years after we graduated, she still holds several Academy records.

SATURDAY’S UNIFORM PATCH

The Black Knights will be wearing the unit patch of the 1st Calvary Division when

they take on North Texas. The 1st Calvary is stationed at Fort Hood, Texas. Its roots

date back to 1855. The 2nd Cavalry Regiment was redesignated the 5th Calvary in

1861, and this unit particpated in a number of Civil War battles, including Bull Run,

Antietam, Gettysburg, Wilderness and Appomatox. With the initiation of the National

Defense Act, the 1st Calvary was offi cially activated in 1921 at Fort Bliss, having the

5th, 7th, 8th and 9th Calvary Regiments assigned to the division. The 1st Calvary

was dubbed the “First Team” by Maj. Gen. William C. Chase.
