520 _a"A History of Troop A Cavalry, Connecticut National Guard and Its Service in the Great War" by Robert John McCarthy is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the evolution and experiences of Troop A, detailing its transformation from a ceremonial cavalry unit into an active combat force during World War I. The narrative focuses on the troop's preparations, mobilization, and various deployments, aiming to preserve the memories of those who served and their sacrifices. The opening of this work lays the foundation of Troop A's history, beginning with its establishment in the early 19th century and moving through its evolution into the Connecticut National Guard. It vividly describes the troop's transition from parade formations to real battlefield scenarios, emphasizing the camaraderie among members, their training, and the challenges they faced. The initial chapters outline how the troop rose to become an operational machine gun company, setting the stage for their involvement in significant military engagements and the emotional experiences that accompanied them throughout their service.
