The Last U.S. Cavalry Charge in History

from History Shorts

In January 1942—amid the chaos of Japan's rapid advance in the Pacific—an echo of an older kind of warfare thundered across the battlefield. In this episode, we revisit the last mounted cavalry charge in U.S. military history, carried out near Morong during the early days of World War II. Led by Edwin Price Ramsey, American and Filipino cavalrymen launched a desperate, daring attack against advancing Japanese forces—sabers drawn, horses charging into modern war.   SUPPORT THE SHOW: https://www.patreon.com/c/HistoryShortsPodcast ADVERTISE: https://www.historyshortspodcast.com/advertise  LEARN MORE: https://www.historyshortspodcast.com/ SPONSORED BY: https://www.podcastrepublic.net/get-it-now
