Before the US pulled out of the Phillipines the US Military used horse mounted patrols to guard against rebel inflitration.

On a side note, in this age of precision guided missiels that can strike from thousands of Km away, we are still less than 70 years removed form the last use of the mounted lancer in combat, and less than 100 years removed from the last large scale use of Lancers in the Western world.
