Шаблон:Infobox military unitThe 152nd Cavalry Brigade was a cavalry unit of the United States Army Organized Reserve during the interwar period. Organized in 1922, the brigade spent its entire career with the 61st Cavalry Division and was disbanded after the United States entered World War II.

History

The brigade was constituted in the Organized Reserve on 15 October 1921, part of the 61st Cavalry Division in the Second Corps Area. It included the 303rd and 304th Cavalry Regiments and the 152nd Machine Gun Squadron at New York City. In February 1922, the brigade headquarters was initiated (organized) in Manhattan. Between 17 March of that year and 27 November 1931, the 152nd was commanded by Lincoln C. Andrews, who became Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. On 20 December 1928, the 152nd Machine Gun Squadron was relieved from its assignment to the 61st and withdrawn from the Organized Reserves, with its personnel transferred to one of the brigade's regiments.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn From 15 April 1937 to June 1939, the brigade was led by Brice Disque, the head of the Spruce Production Division during World War I.Шаблон:Sfn

Between 1923 and 1940, the 152nd usually conducted summer training at Fort Ethan Allen with the 1st Squadron, 3rd Cavalry Regiment, but held summer training with the 3rd Cavalry Regiment at Fort Belvoir in 1937 and 1939.
