As eventers, we’re well-versed in the role horses have played in military history. Our sport did evolve from cavalry training after all; and when eventing first arrived on the Olympic scene only commissioned officers were allowed to complete.
While horses may not be an essential part of military operations anymore, they can play an enormous role in enriching the lives of service members physically, emotionally, and psychologically. This will be the focus of the next DEI Community Conversation hosted by US Equestrian. “Horses and the Military: A Long-Standing Partnership,” will take place on Monday, November 7, from 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. ET via Zoom.
