War in Adirondacks still raging with horses in maneuvers
In Plattsburgh NY during the First Army maneuvers in the Adirondacks, 1,229 horses and mules carry out traditional tasks alongside tanks and armor. Old cavalrymen recall past horse power as mechanized units replace horse regiments, with the 112th Field Artillery and units like the 101st Cavalry and 3d Cavalry supplying horses for the drills.
