Bulgaria WW2 Cavalry

Bulgarian cavalry in the Second World War reflected the continuing usefulness of mounted formations in an army with limited complete motorization. Bulgaria’s wartime position changed as the conflict developed, including its 1944 political reversal and subsequent fighting against Germany. Horses could support reconnaissance and movement where roads or fuel supplies limited vehicles. Bulgarian forces spent much of the early war in occupation and security commitments in the Balkans rather than the German invasion of the Soviet Union. After the September 1944 reversal, they fought German forces in southeastern Europe. Cavalry belonged to this changing national military context. Mounted formations also required substantial support services.
