AMERICAN CAVALRY, ARTILLERY AND PATRIOT MILITIAS: TO 1783
The Revolutionary Army
Cavalry and artillery are widely involved in combat by
their nature, and are usually conceived by commanders as integral components
with infantry in the winning of land battles. Cavalry, artillery, and
infantry were (and still are) deployed as mutually-supporting,
manoeuver elements in land battles. Cavalry and artillery units often
participated at less than full unit strength in detachments, or companies,
to spread their support for the infantry, which is accepted as the principal
manoeuver element.[1]
