BUFFALO SOLDIERS NATIONAL ASSOCIATION CELEBRATES
75 YEARS OF INTEGRATION OF ARMED FORCES AND
ELECTS ITS FIRST WOMEN PRESIDENT
At its 157th Anniversary Reunion, July 23-29, 2023, in Houston, Texas, the 9th and 10th (Horse) Cavalry Association, at the Buffalo Soldier National Museum, members gathered to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of President Harry Truman signing the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act and Executive Order 9981 Ending Segregation in the Armed Forces in 1948.
The reunion also featured the unveiling of the 9th and 10th (Horse) Cavalry Association Founders’ plaque and the 25th Infantry Bicycle Corps exhibit in the Buffalo Soldiers National Museum.
On another historical note, the association membership elected Trooper Nina Amos as its new leader. Trooper Amos is a life member and a member of the National Association for over 18 years and is the President and Founder of the Greater Denver CO Chapter Buffalo Soldiers, 9th & 10th (Horse) Cavalry Association.
I believe that the Buffalo Soldiers have truly given us “A Glorious Past, and have Blazed a Brilliant Future”, said the exuberant and gracious Trooper Amos. Their “Fierce Fighting Spirits” and the ultimate sacrifice of their lives is what we can forever be proud of”.

9th & 10th New Capital Campaign For Our New Museum
What an exciting time for our Association! What an AMAZING opportunity we have been given to Preserve Our Historic and Storied Legacy along with the U. S. Army Combined Arms Center.
OUR MISSION
The U. S. Army Center of Military History, “Frontier Army Museum”, is currently housed on the Fort Leavenworth, Kansas campus. The Frontier Army Museum provides visitors with an understanding of the challenges, customs, and cultures of the Frontier Army from 1804-1917. Fort Leavenworth is also home to the historic monuments which celebrate the great legacy of the Buffalo Soldiers and their history engrained in this great institution – known as “Buffalo Soldiers Park” aka “Circle of First”.
While this Museum tells the U. S. Army story, it is not publicly accessible. In an agreement with the U. S. Army, The Ninth and Tenth (Horse) Cavalry Association’s capital campaign will fund the construction of a new and reimagined Museum that will be built outside of the gates of the military post to increase access to the public and better serve the community. This access gives all the opportunity to share in and experience a world class museum designed to collect, preserve, and safeguard the material culture of the United States Army including the Buffalo Soldiers and their storied military History.
Our New Museum Building Capital Campaign is actively in the planning stage. Under the direction of the New Museum Committee Chairman, Captain Paul (PJ) Matthews we are positioned to successfully complete our mission!
This mission will require ALL of us to participate to be successful, our chapters and our association members at large. We must LEAD the way in building OUR new museum! Chapters are being asked to set a giving goal into the building fund and we will be reaching out to our members at large for your necessary participation.
So, start now planning your participation to be a part of Preserving Our Great Legacy and helping to build a beautiful edifice that will honor Our Gallant Buffalo Soldiers and the U. S. Army’s Military
History.
YOU, your Families and Friends along with other campaign donors will be able to participate in this awesome mission!
Our Campaign Website is now available. Click HERE to go there now! Please plan to HELP US REACH OUR GOAL!
For more information, please contact our Committee Chairman, Captain Paul Matthews by emailing him here.
