Don't worry...the dragoon are coming!
We all know what the cavalry are but dragoon?
A dragoon is a soldier trained to fight on foot, but transport himself on horseback. In other words, they move as cavalry but fight as infantry. The name derives from their primary weapon, a carbine or short musket called the "dragon."
