The 15th Cavalry Division was created with the 1st & 2nd Cavalry Brigades in February 1917 at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. It numbered in succession of the 1st–14th Divisions, which were not all active at its creation. Originally trained for deployment to Europe, its units were later converted into field artillery units. The division was deactivated on 12 May 1918. Elements of the division were reconstituted as the 1st Cavalry Division in 1920. ==Organization== * Headquarters Element (34 men) *1st Cavalry Brigade (2,803 men) * *3rd Cavalry Regiment * *14th Cavalry Regiment * *15th Cavalry Regiment *2nd Cavalry Brigade (2,803 men) * *Battery C, 6th Field Artillery (Horse) * *5th Cavalry Regiment (Transferred from Fort Bliss, Texas to Camp Stewart, Texas in April 1917). * *8th Cavalry Regiment (Transferred from Philippines Department to Fort Bliss, Texas in April 1917) * *9th Cavalry Regiment (Assigned to Fort Bliss, Texas; patrolled the US-Mexican Border from 1912 to 1917.
