Cavalry (from French cavalerie, cf. cheval 'horse') or horsemen were soldiers or warriors who fought mounted on horseback. Cavalry were historically the third oldest (after infantry and chariotry) and the most mobile of the combat arms. A soldier in the cavalry is known by a number of designations such as cavalryman, horseman or trooper.
The designation of cavalry was not usually given to any military force that used other animals, such as camels or mules. Infantry who moved on horseback, but dismounted to fight on foot, were known in the 17th and early 18th centuries as dragoons, a class of mounted infantry which later evolved into cavalry proper while retaining their historic title.
From earliest times cavalry had the advantage of improved mobility, making it an
instrument which multiplied the fighting value of even the smallest forces, allowing them to outflank and avoid, to surprise and overpower, to retreat and escape according to the requirements of the moment.
A man fighting from horseback also had the advantages of greater height, speed, and inertial mass over an opponent on foot. Another element of horse mounted warfare is the psychological impact a mounted soldier can inflict on an opponent.
Ronald Wilson Reagan ( /ˈrɒnəld ˈwɪlsən ˈreɪɡən/; February 6, 1911 – June 5, 2004) was the 40th President of the United States, serving from 1981 to 1989. Prior to that, he was the 33rd Governor of California from 1967 to 1975 and a radio, film and television actor.
Born in Tampico, Illinois and raised in Dixon, Reagan was educated at Eureka College, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in economics and sociology. After his graduation, Reagan moved first to Iowa to work as a radio broadcaster and then in to Los Angeles in 1937 where he began a career as an actor, first in films and later television. Some of his most notable films include Knute Rockne, All American, Kings Row, and Bedtime for Bonzo. Reagan served as president of the Screen Actors Guild, and later as a spokesman for General Electric (GE); his start in politics occurred during his work for GE. Originally a member of the Democratic Party, his positions began shifting rightward in the late 1950s, and he switched to the Republican Party in 1962. After delivering a rousing speech in support of Barry Goldwater's presidential candidacy in 1964, he was persuaded to seek the California governorship, winning two years later and again in 1970. He was defeated in his run for the Republican presidential nomination in 1968 as well as 1976, but won both the nomination and general election in 1980, defeating incumbent Jimmy Carter.
Plot
In the 1930s, an elderly Tonto tells a young boy the tale of John Reid, the Lone Ranger. An idealistic lawyer, he rides with his brother and fellow Texas Rangers in pursuit of the notorious Butch Cavendish. Ambushed by the outlaw and left for dead, John Reid is rescued by the renegade Comanche, Tonto, at the insistence of a mysterious white horse and offers to help him to bring Cavendish to justice. Becoming a reluctant masked rider with a seemingly incomprehensible partner, Reid pursues the criminal against all obstacles. However, John and Tonto learn that Cavendish is only part of a far greater injustice and the pair must fight it in an adventure that would make them a legend.

[from trailer]::Tonto: People think you are dead. Better you stay that way.::John Reid: You want me to wear a mask?::Tonto: There come a time, when good man must wear mask.
[from trailer]::John Reid: Why're you taking to that horse? Why am I covered in dirt?::Tonto: I buried you.::John Reid: Why am I alive?
[from trailer]::John Reid: If we ride together, we ride for justice.::Tonto: Justice is what I seek, Kemosabe.
[from trailer]::Tonto: [to Reid] Eight men rode into canyon... I dug seven graves. Horse says, you are spirit walker: a man who has been to the other side and returned, a man who cannot be killed at all...
[from trailer]::[Silver climbs on a tree branch]::Tonto: Something very wrong with that horse.
[from trailer]::Tonto: Horse says you are a spirit walker. A man who's been to the other side and returned. A man who cannot be killed in battle.
[from trailer]::Latham Cole: I want to show you something. From the time of Alexander the Great, no man could travel faster than a horse that carried him. Not anymore. Imagine; time and space, under the mastery of man, power makes emperors and kings... look like fools. Whoever controls this, controls the future.

[from trailer]::Stache: [speaking to Butch Cavendish] It was a ranger, riding a white horse. Got some lunatic indian with him. They're coming for you.
Tonto: Nice Shot.::John Reid: That was supposed to be a warning shot.::Tonto: In that case, not so good.
Plot
Holy Man is the story of Douglas White, an 88 year old Lakota Sioux medicine man from Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, who spent 17 years in federal prison for a crime he did not commit. During the making of this film, filmmakers uncovered new evidence of White's innocence and brought the case back to Federal Court. Holy Man offers a rare glimpse into the mysterious world of Lakota religion, their intimate connection to the land, and a provocative expose of the systemic injustice that Native Americans face in the criminal justice system.

Welcome to the reservation.
Plot
The Apache Indians have reluctantly agreed to settle on a US Government approved reservation. Not all the Apaches are able to adapt to the life of corn farmers. One in particular, Geronimo, is restless. Pushed over the edge by broken promises and necessary actions by the government, Geronimo and thirty or so other warriors form an attack team which humiliates the government by evading capture, while reclaiming what is rightfully theirs.

Al Sieber, Chief of Scouts: There's two dead women there... and two little kids. They scalped them all, all four of 'em. Bounty hunters. The government down here pays 200 pesos a head for men, 100 for women and 50 for those kids. They kill any Indian and then claim they are Apache. I don't see how any man can sink so low. Must be Texans... the lowest form of white man there is.
Al Sieber, Chief of Scouts: I just think you're a real sad case. You don't love who you're fighting for, and you don't hate who you're fighting against.::1st Lt. Charles B. Gatewood: Perhaps I could learn to hate with the proper vigor from you, Al.
Geronimo: With all this land, why is there no room for the Apache? Why does the White-Eye want all land?
1st Lt. Charles B. Gatewood: The Apache go where the best fight is. It's a moral value once you understand it.
1st Lt. Charles B. Gatewood: That was a great shot!::Geronimo: Not so great, I was aiming for his head.
Geronimo: No guns, No bullets could ever kill me. That was my power... Now my time is over.
2nd Lt. Britton Davis: As he handed over his weapons, Geronimo simply said: "Once I moved about like the wind. Now I surrender and that is all."
Al Sieber, Chief of Scouts: I'm going to go on down to Tucson and I'm going to get drunk!

Getting up is easy, when you're first to get the message, that it's time to put your money where your mouth is today
But if your friends are all asleep and you've got pillows on your feet, then your objectives will be lost, you will float on away
When the cavalry comes, you'll find us lookin for a reason, to break down these walls and jump
When the cavalry comes, you'll find us lookin for a reason, to show you the brave don't run, don't run
A proper cup of coffee, from a proper coffee shop, was all I needed to get a little purpose in life
Well the reasons are clear, my bearings aren't there, my compass points me in the wrong direction all night
But when the cavalry comes, you'll find us lookin for a reason, to break down these walls and jump
When the cavalry comes, you'll find us lookin for a reason, to show you the brave don't run, don't run
They said, I bet, you'll never make it on your own
They said, I bet, you'll never learn this, no no no no!
They said, I bet, you'll never get this, no no no no!
No no no no, no no no no, no no...
But when the cavalry comes, you'll find us lookin for a reason, to break down these walls and jump
When the cavalry comes, you'll find us lookin for a reason, to show you the brave don't run

When the cavalry comes, you'll find us looking for love
On every street-corner and circus in the city tonight
When the cavalry comes, you'll find us looking for trouble
Some men may be faint of heart when it comes time to do their part
Call my name and I will say the cavalry is on it's way
Rewinding on the true romance leave so many things to chance

For the lady in distress, I'm John Wayne and nothing less
I'm the good guy coming to your rescue
I'm a strong and quiet guy, just say the word and you will find me
In the saddle on my way to love you
You will not have to cry in vain
I'll brave the dust to dry the rain

Dusk night settles on this desert world
Been traveling 45 day's now
My goal's to strip souls who thought they broke my peace
Nobody's gonna push this future drifter back yeah
Cut my hourse loose from the Cavalery
Release all tension I'll be law
Crystal meth burns on the silouette.
Forced burtality always uncovers evidence!
Don't wanna be the victim man
I'll be the one standing alone
Nobady's gona hear you when
I draw ya down
Cut my horse loose from the Cavalry
Release all tension I'll be law
Cut my horse loose from the Cavalry
Release all anguish I'll be law

Sheets of pain fell on this wasted land
I still believe hope is the answer
Spent my lifetime always running away
