US Cavalry Groups had a substantive and direct impact on Allied success in almost every campaign, and served as offensive guards for armies across Europe, conducting reconnaissance, economy of force, and security missions, as well as prisoner of war rescues. During the early stages of the Battle of the Bulge these groups had the mobility, flexibility, and firepower to move quickly across the battlefield, enabling them to aid communications and intelligence gathering, reducing the Clausewitzian "friction of war."

William Nance is an active duty armor officer. He taught military history at the United States Military Academy and the United States Command and General Staff College.
