Fort Riley Release

Following the Army’s directive, Fort Riley is concluding operations of the Commanding General’s Mounted Color Guard to align more resources with our warfighting capability and readiness.

We will work diligently to find suitable homes for our horses and will keep the community informed throughout this transition. This change does not impact the 1st Infantry Division’s (“Big Red One”) core priorities: building warfighting readiness, caring for Soldiers, civilians, and families, adapting our formations to win, and developing inspirational leaders. We remain committed to strengthening partnerships and engaging with our surrounding communities.
