The Order of the Spur is aCavalry tradition within the United States Army as silver spurs are awarded toSoldiers for h...aving served as a member of, or with, a Cavalry unit and who havedemonstrated a profound knowledge of their craft while never having had theopportunity to serve in combat. The spurs are to be worn with the militaryuniform during Regimental ceremonies and events or as designated by the Cavalryunit commander. Within the tradition, silver spurshold a similar relationship for the cavalry as the Expert Infantry Badge in theU.S. Army Infantry. The tradition of having to"earn your spurs" reaches back to the beginning of the cavalry. Whengreen Troopers first arrived at their new cavalry assignments they wereassigned a horse with a shaved tail. This led to the nickname "ShaveTail" for newly assigned, spur-less Soldiers. These new Troopers were inneed of extensive training, especially in the area of swordsmanship from atop ahorse. The horse with a shaved tail was given extra space in which to operatesince its rider was marked as an amateur. During this phase of training, theTroopers were not allowed to wear spurs because this would only serve tocompound their problems. Only when they were able to prove their ability toperform with their horse and saber were they awarded spurs.Please visit our eBay Store to see our full line of Civil War related items and more!
