6th ACR Regulation Military Patch
Product Description
The distinctive unit insignia was originally approved for the 6th Cavalry Regiment on 11 August 1922.
The Regiment took part in the eastern campaigns of the Civil War, its outstanding feats being at Williamsburg, Virginia, 1862, when it assaulted intrenched works, and at Fairfield, Pennsylvania, 1863. At Fairfield the unit engaged two enemy brigades of cavalry, completely neutralizing them and saving the supply trains of the Army, but in the process was literally cut to pieces. This is symbolized by the unicorn, held to represent the knightly virtues and, in the rampant position, a symbol of fighting aggressiveness, combined with speed and activity. The shield is blue, the color of the Federal uniform in the Civil War.
Campaigns: Civil War, Indian Wars, China Relief Expedition, Philippine Insurrection, Mexican Expedition, World War I, and World War II.
Presidential Unit Citation- Army.
Our 6th Armored Cavalry Regiment Army patch is a regulation, full color, embroidered military patch. This is the same patch that is supplied to the U.S. Army, Army National Guard, Army Reserve units, and sold in the Army Post Exchanges. This patch would be a great gift idea and a wonderful addition to your patch collection.
