Light Reconnaissance

Comments: I am a US Army Light Cavalry Troop commander. I am trying to get input from veterans that served in combat with light cavalry (i.e., scout cars, jeeps, M8, dismounted, etc)units. I will use input on training (what training was most important and useful in combat), tactics (i.e., what worked against both armored and dismounted enemy threats) to conduct my unit's training here. There is no true doctrine for light cavalry; most of it is modified from the "heavy" Cav. Thanks in advance.
