Raising awareness and acknowledgement of the first peacetime all-black regiments in the regular U.S. Army after the end of the Civil War is the goal of a local cavalry troop and nonprofit organization. On July 28, 1866, Congress authorized six regiments of Negro slaves and free men, which consisted of the 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments, and the 38th, 39th, 40th and 41st Infantry Regiments. These men became known as, “Buffalo Soldiers.” The rich and historical legacy and accomplishments of these valiant soldiers will be on full display at the 20th Anniversary Celebration of the San Diego Chapter Buffalo Soldiers on June 30, 2023, at the Celebration Hall of the Vi and Joe Jacob Center in Lincoln Park. The public is invited to join the anniversary luncheon, enjoy exhibits of artifacts, and celebrate their contributions at this noteworthy event. An informative program is planned and special keynote speaker, Brigadier General Antoinette R. Gant, the first African American female, active-duty engineer promoted to the rank of general officer, will be in attendance. For more information visit: sandiegobuffalosoldiers.org
