U.S. Soldiers with the 6th Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment,

U.S. Soldiers with the 6th Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment, 4th Combat Aviation Brigade go for Cavalry Stetson and Spurs at Oberdachstetten Range Complex in Ansbach, Germany, Oct. 16, 2018. The Soldiers come with CH-47 Chinook helicopter transports to the Forward Arming and Refueling Point (FARP) and march to the shooting range and the obstacle course to take on the traditional challenge. The Spur Ride is the only means of joining the Order of the Spur, aside from a wartime induction. The conduct of a Spur Ride varies but it is generally an event held over multiple days during which a Trooper must pass a series of physical and mental tests relevant to the Cavalry.
