"The Bronco Buster" by Frederic Remington was presented to Theodore Roosevelt when the unit was disbanded on September 15, 1898 following the Spanish American War. Remington was a good friend of TR's and illustrated several of Roosevelt's books on ranching in the Dakotas. The bronze sits on the mantle in the North Room at the Theodore Roosevelt Home.
