About
Buffalo Soldiers Legacy
The Buffalo Soldiers were African American regiments formed after the Civil War, most notably the 9th and 10th Cavalry. Despite facing discrimination, these soldiers demonstrated exceptional courage, professionalism, and dedication to duty.
They served with distinction across the American West, protected national parks, built infrastructure, and defended the nation in multiple conflicts — earning respect through service and sacrifice.
The NABSTMC proudly carries this legacy forward, ensuring their story is taught, honored, and preserved for future generations.
