Men Wanted for the Army - Cavalry recruiting poster shows a bugler
sounding taps in the southwest territory. Oddly, it advertises a service in
decline after the closing of the frontier in 1890. Cavalry was useless in France
for reconnaissance or attack; German lines stretched from the North Sea to
Switzerland.
In a scene reminiscent of the Old West, three cavalrymen ride a team of six
draft horses that are pulling an ammunition caisson and a field artillery piece.
Enormous amounts of artillery shells were used throughout the five years of war.
It’s estimated that these munitions cost the Allies over ten million dollars
per day.
