Official military photographs, deployment records, unit history, awards, and firsthand information are being organized and preserved for veterans, families, and future generations.
1st Squadron (Airborne), 40th Cavalry Regiment
1-40th CAV Veterans Association
Built by and for the Denali Squadron community, the 1-40th CAV Veterans Association keeps veterans, families, and supporters connected while preserving our history, honoring our fallen, and carrying the bonds of service forward.
Once Denali, Always Denali
Service creates a bond that carries forward.
Service with 1-40th CAV created a bond that does not end when the deployment is over or the uniform is put away. This association exists to keep that bond strong across troops, deployments, generations, and miles.
