Since the Plains Indian Wars, American Cavalry units have been identified by their Stetsons and Spurs. As horses "evolved" to tanks and helicopters, the Cavalry did not relinquish its distinctive traditions,instead, they became reminders of the Cav's heroic past, and set the Cavalry Trooper apart from the rest. Cavalrymen are still distinguished by their unique Stetson hats,but today the Spurs are awarded only to deserving Troopers of the Cavalry who earn them.
