– VETERAN HEALTH ALERT –

Few veterans and their families are aware of the hazard that asbestos poses. Asbestos exposures were common aboard naval vessels and other military installations. Exposure has been conclusively linked to mesothelioma, a rare cancer and aggressive cancer. Options for mesothelioma treatment are limited so any veteran or family member who believes they have been exposed should consult with their physician about their asbestos history.

Cavalry Unit and Organization Pages

• http://www.uscavalry.org/ – The United States Cavalry Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the history and heritage of the Cavalry. Our members come from all walks of life, from active-duty military personnel to housewives, historians and doctors. They all share a common interest in the history of the cavalry and a desire to see that history preserved for future generations. Some are historians, seeking preservation through the written word. Others are reenactors, bringing history to life for others to enjoy. All seek to learn and teach others about the history and heritage of the U.S. Cavalry.

• E Troop, 3/17th Air Cav was really the 334th AHC. Just how the 334th became E-3/17th is a another complicated story that only the Army could invent. We haven’t really got this one sorted out, but Delta Troopers enjoyed the protection of the guns of the 334th years before they became E-3/17th. Enjoy their web site. – E Troop3/17th Air Cav
