Combat arms as a whole is actually tiny -takes a lot of rear guard assholes to support one guy on the frontlines (just kidding rear-guard assholes, I love yall). A soldier -is- a soldier, regardless, and yes, alot of the personnel in Cav units are infantry, if the vehicle has dismounts the operators are also infantry.

We used to get a hell of a laugh out of people who joined the Army for college funds. Most of the giggles involved reminding them of all the less shitty ways one could go about getting the scratch to go to school- relative to the path they decided was a good idea....and perhaps, considering that decision...that they probably didn't belong in college anyway (specifically in the case of infantry).

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
