Casimir Pulaski: Cavalry Commander of the American Revolution
Casimir Pulaski: Cavalry Commander of the American Revolution
General Casimir Pulaski, an experienced and accomplished cavalry commander, came to America in 1777 to fight for American independence. He had passionately embraced liberty as his lifelong goal. In his native Poland he fought but failed to evict the superior Russian-occupying forces and restore the sovereignty of his country. He then came to hazard all for the freedom of Americans.
Pulaski was 100 years ahead of Americans. Not until the American Civil War did Pulaski's philosophy of cavalry operations influence the Confederates to field capable cavalry forces and the North to do so two years later. Casimir Pulaski may be called the "Father of American Cavalry."
