Buffalo Soldiers Socks
Description: After the Civil War, the U.S. government struggled to find a place for its Black troops in a smaller postwar Army. In 1866, the Army decided to form the 9th and 10th Cavalry and 24th and 25th Infantry Regiments to replace the U.S. Colored Troops. Black Americans, many Civil War Veterans and former slaves, signed up to join these regiments. At one point, these Black regiments comprised almost one fifth of the Army. These four regiments distinguished themselves during Westward Expansion—where they became known as “Buffalo Soldiers”—and Spanish-American War.

Description: The 92nd Infantry Division was an infantry division of the United States Army that served in both World War I and World War II. Organized in October 1917 at Camp Funston, Kansas, the unit was formed with African American soldiers from all states. Before leaving for France in 1918, the buffalo was selected as the divisional insignia due to the "Buffalo Soldiers" nickname, given to African American cavalrymen by Native Americans in the 19th century. The "Buffalo Soldiers Division" divisional nickname was inherited from the 367th Infantry, one of the first units of the division organized. This segregated unit was the only African American infantry division to see combat in Europe during World War II, as part of the U.S. Fifth Army, fig...
Description: The 92nd Infantry Division, nicknamed the "Buffalo Soldiers," was an all-Black combat unit that fought in both World War I and World War II. In World War II, it was the only African American infantry division to see combat in Europe, serving in the Italian Campaign. The "Buffalo Soldiers" were African American regiments formed in the U.S. Army after the Civil War, initially tasked with serving on the Western frontier. They earned their name from Native American tribes who compared their fighting fierceness and dark, curly hair to that of a buffalo.
Description: The first peacetime all-Black army regiment, which we honor on Buffalo Soldiers Day, July 28th each year, was formed mainly to keep order in the Wild West after the Civil War. In such a rough-and-tumble place, where unknown natural dangers and thieves abounded, the buffalo soldiers had extremely low desertion rates. These brave men of the 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments were inexplicably named the ‘buffalo soldiers’ not by their own leadership, but by the Native American tribes they came into contact with — and no one quite knows why! These troops helped catch cattle thieves, protect national parks, ensure the safe travel of settlers from the East, and much more. Today, we honor their service in helping our country stay safe, and being a gro
Description: The Buffalo Soldiers were African American soldiers who served in the U.S. Army after the Civil War, beginning in 1866. They were originally members of the 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments, later joined by the 24th and 25th Infantry Regiments. The nickname "Buffalo Soldiers" was given to them by Native American tribes, possibly due to their fierce fighting style or their hair's resemblance to a buffalo's mane. These soldiers played a key role in the Indian Wars, protected settlers, built infrastructure, and later served in conflicts like the Spanish-American War and both World Wars. Despite facing racism and harsh conditions, they earned a strong legacy of bravery and service.
