🐴The Riderless Horse: one of the oldest and most moving military traditions in a full honor funeral is the riderless, caparisoned horse. The horse is led behind the caisson wearing an empty saddle with the rider's boots reversed in the stirrups, indicating the warrior will never ride again.

Join us this Memorial Day weekend to remember the heroes we have lost and the families they leave behind.

Thanks to the 3d U.S.Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) for this portrait of the Riderless Horse.

Since It's Memorial Day Weekend Let Us Not Forget......

🐴 They carried them into battle. They carried them home.

Before there were tanks, there were horses.

Before there were jeeps, there were horses.

Before there were helicopters — there were horses, standing steady in chaos, breathing calm into terrified soldiers, carrying the weight of war on four hooves and a trusting heart.

Three million horses and mules served during the Civil War alone. At the turn of the 20th century, millions more were sent to the front lines of WWI.

They didn't enlist. They didn't have a choice. They simply trusted the humans who led them and they Gave Everything.

This Memorial Day is a privilege granted to us by the sacrifices of both man and horse.

If you've ever laid your forehead against a horse's neck and felt that quiet strength — you already know what a soldier must have felt on the darkest nights of war.
That warmth. That steadiness. That I've got you.

Today we fly flags, attend parades, and lay wreaths.

But somewhere in that sacred silence — can we save a moment for the ones with four legs and no medals?

They were brave. They were loyal. They were there.
Honor the fallen. All of them. 🇺🇸

Tag a horse person who needs to see this. 🐴❤️
