Citizen Soldiers: 107th Cavalry
Regiment, Ohio National Guard
By George N. Vourlojianis
This book deals with the tradition of the citizen soldiers,
private citizens who originally served in self-supported militia and who were
ready to serve their state when some form of crisis occurred. In particular, it
covers the First Cavalry Troop of Cleveland, which eventually became a part of
the Ohio National Guard, and saw service on the Mexican border, in World War 1,
World War II, in Kosovo, and in Iraq. The troop also helped quell the urban
riots in Cleveland. In addition to its peacekeeping role, the troop was also
active in civic roles, participating in parades, escorting dignitaries, and
holding and performing in equestrian competitions.
