If you're interested in what life was like in the Regiment during its horse days, found
something last night you might like. It's a 1969 study about Fort Laramie Wyoming
in the 1870's and includes a lot of comments about the Regiment, mainly K Company - muster roll, daily calls, life in the barracks, equipment, furnishings, etc. The whole thing is online (and also ads to buy it). To see it, google: Fort
Laramie NHS, The Cavalry Barracks - Fort Laramie. www.nps.gov/...fola//
barracks-hfs/index.htm might also work.
