Sub-collection: The Aldon & Lea Cavalry Guidon Sub-Collection

U.S. Army Red over White Guidon, Troop F, 7th US Cavalry.
This Cavalry Guidon made in 1885 was flown by Troop F of the 7th United States Cavalry-probably the most storied of all U.S. Cavalry regiments, a fact known by the director John Ford when he chose to depict the 7th in the hair-raising rescue mission against Geronimo's Apaches.
