Horses have been used in warfare since around 1500 BC. They were used in the Civil War and the Spanish-American War. So there was no reason to believe that horses would not be valuable in the Great War. The military mainly used horses for logistical support; they were better than mechanized vehicles at traveling through deep mud and over rough terrain. Horses were used for reconnaissance and for carrying messengers, as well as pulling artillery, ambulances, and supply wagons. The presence of horses often increased morale among the soldiers at the front. BUT the animals contributed to disease and poor sanitation in camps, caused by their manure and carcasses. The value of horses was having decreasing value, and a tactical decision was made to \"not replace\" them. By the end of the war horses were in short supply for all sides.
