Troopers Assemble! Mount Up, Draw Sabers, and Ride with Us!
HONOR AND COURAGE – STRENGTH AND HONOR
Today it can seem like everything we fought and built in America is falling apart. Some of us may be hoping for the cavalry to come riding over the hill to save us with bugles sounding and swords and weapons flashing driving back our enemies with strength, courage, and plenty of testosterone. I have good news and bad news. The good news is that the Cavalry IS coming! The bad news is, that just like in 1776, YOU’RE IT! If not you who? If not now when? The sunset of America and the West is at hand. If we don’t move quickly and decisively our enemies will overwhelm us in their lies as they commit acts of violence, terrorism, and assassination while telling us to be non-violent and turn the other cheek The choice is ours. Do we reaffirm the American Experiment – that men and women can chart their own destiny without being slaves of government, mega-corporations, banks, or each other or do we bow down in apathy and weakness and accept our chains? Samuel Adams in 1775 said: “If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” For me, I know where me and my sons stand. We are veterans of the military, security, and law enforcement and we vowed to preserve and protect the constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic. Everyone of us is going to die; let us choose to live and die for a cause that will change the future of the world. Before I served in counterintelligence I served in the 8th US Cavalry whose motto was Honor and Courage. The motto of the Roman Legions was Strength and Honor. I believe that we have come to a time where talk will not save us; Strength and Honor/Honor and Courage is what saves us now. Scouts Out! Dum Spiro Spero! So say we all! Daniel of SabersEdge.Online

A word about Troopers. A Trooper is a cavalryman. It is an old tradition but it is one of the branches of the military that has their own special word for a trooper who performs a special mission. Troopers today perform the same role they did in the past, especially their mission in the US Civil War. They SCREEN an army. That means it is the cavalry’s job to stay between the army and the enemy. They must stay in constant contact with the enemy (if not by fighting then by direct observation,) so that the enemy doesn’t do anything unexpected and the army has proper warning. This is part of their mission or RECON or reconnaissance which is gathering information on the enemy and terrain. At Gettysburg when the Confederate army approached Buford’s first cavalry division fought to delay the entire 1st Corp of the Confederate army to give the US Army time to reach the battle field and set up their defensive positions. Had they not done that most scholars think the battle would have gone against the Union. When I was in the 8th Cavalry during the Cold War our 3rd Squadron (about 1500 men of which I was a part,) had the mission to stop a 22,000 man soviet Tank Army in a valley in Germany for two days while the 8th Infantry Division and the German Army deployed to receive their attack. They expected that most of us would be dead in the first hour of the war but with fire and maneuver we could have maybe held them for a day. That is part of why we have the right to still wear our Stetson black hats. The other mission that gives us that right is when we penetrate behind enemy lines to raid and destroy their infrastructure. We are trained on the use of enemy weapons and using their own ammunition and fuel to continue the fight as we are operating 15 miles beyond friendly artillery and possibly air support. We could get no air support until we had destroyed the Soviet ZSU-23-4’s which were computer targetted quad mounted anti-aircraft guns. The cavalry uses light tanks, wheeled vehicles (like the old movie the Rat Patrol styled after the British RATS in WWII) and attack helicopters.
The cavalry’s mission was clearly shown in the Mel Gibson Movie We Were Soldiers and General Hal Moore was a revered cavalryman of great renown. In Iraq the US 7th Cavalry (General Custer’s old unit,) moved farther and fought more battles than any other military unit to date (taking the record from Rommel’s unit in the invasion of France in 1940. It made an “end run” around the Iraqi frontline and struck Bagdad when no one was ready. They had moved under cover of a huge sand storm that prevented their detection. The Iraqi’s believed it was impossible for any army to move through such a storm but the cavalry “got ‘er done.”
So when I say Freedom Troopers I do so because I speak to a special breed. It is our job to protect the “main body” of culture and justice that form the basis of our Republic. We are outnumbered and outgunned but undeterred. Together we can “get ‘er done.”
Anyone can become a SabersEdge Freedom Trooper but, at present, everyone who works to support SabersEdge were troopers in the 8th US Cavalry during the Cold War. We would welcome your help.
You can join us and support our work as a not-for-profit educational association through Patreon. Also, a portion of your contribution will go to support the families of fallen heroes (my father and uncles, my sons, and many of my friends are veterans and/or police,) and struggling families.
SabersEdge Association is creating Videos, Blogs, and Writings for Education and growth | Patreon
Through Patreon you can become part of the Saber’s Edge Association Community, get access to our Newsletter and participate in our community as an integral member. But we don’t want to leave out people who cannot afford even the price of a cup of coffee to be with us. Anyone can join us through our Facebook page. However, as more and more have come to realize you cannot always be yourself on FB. They have more and more rules all the time and sometimes even posting a particular banned word will get an entire post removed. That’s why we have our community through Patreon. There we can all be ourselves and, while we all need to show proper courtesy.
Soon we will have more developments as one of my comrades from my army days has taken over the web page development and he actually knows what he is doing. So expect great things as we get stuff squared away.
We’ll get everything set so you can actually join our community where you can be integrated and active soon. In the mean-time comment, spread the page around, tell us what you think, and let’s talk.
When it is darkest, when hope seems lost, the cavalry appears and turns the tide. The Cavalry is Coming! Be part of the change that defeats the darkness and brings the dawn of a new day. Ride Now! Ride to stop the ruin, turn the tide, and for a new dawn. Gary Owen!
When Europe almost fell to invasion and Vienna was the last stronghold holding back the foe it was the cavalry of Poland and Germany that saved the day.
“To each cavalier who loves honor and right, let him follow the feather of [Saber] tonight; Come tighten your girth, and slacken your reign, come buckle you blanket and holster again, try the click of your trigger and balance your blade, for he must ride sure who goes ridin’ a raid.” Cavalry, the eyes and ears of the army were the first to make contact with the enemy and the last to break contact. In that same spirit the SabersEdge Association will fight for truth, honor, virtue, and the future. We will act courageously, stand for what we believe in, and fear no darkness. To many people things may seem hopeless but here at SabersEdge we know that The Cavalry is Coming. (See our Mission at MISSION: Repair of the World – SabersEdge and WE HAVE A FUTURE – SabersEdge )
On every continent, in every age, time and again the cavalry has changed the world. We are changing this one.

Here at SabersEdge we cut through the spin and lies to get to the truth inspired the the words of General Robert E. Lee at the funeral of his cavalry general JEB Stuart: “He never gave me a bit of false information.”
