The New Jersey Cavalry and Armor Association is a professional, fraternal organization focused on the history of NJ Cavalry and Armor and the professional development of the leaders and Soldiers of the 1-102nd Cavalry Squadron. We are open to all service members, veterans, and members of the community. The association is mostly made up of currently serving officers, non-commissioned officers, and Soldiers of the 1-102nd Cavalry Squadron, and it's "alumni", who once served in the squadron or one of the armor battalions within the New Jersey Army National Guard. Our members are also veterans from other services and specialties and include a host of members from local communities. We serve the 1-102nd Cavalry organization by hosting professional development "Stable Calls," serve its Family Readiness Group, and co-sponsor events like the "Spur Ride," the Spurs and Sabers Dinner/Dance and Casino Night with Bonds of Courage. While we draw most of our membership from the 1st Squadron, 102nd Cavalry Regiment of the 44th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, New Jersey Army National Guard we represent Cavalrymen and Armor officers, NCOs and Soldiers and Reconnaissance professionals from across New Jersey.
We draw our lineage from the 102nd and 117th Cavalry and work to promote our collective history with 1-102nd Cavalry, NJARNG. Further we partner with the Essex Troop, a longstanding standard bearer for fraternity and history of the 102nd's greater lineage.
