## Resource

In 1867, Company K of the 9th Cavalry spends a long summer rebuilding Fort Lancaster on the road between El Paso and San Antonio. At the end of the year, a force of 400 fighters – led by Kickapoo warriors – attack the fort. In the first serious frontier action of Company K, the Buffalo Soldiers engage in a fierce battle to protect the fort and their horses. Thanks to our sponsor, Quince!
