- Deutsch: Als Buffalo Soldiers (dt. Büffelsoldaten) bezeichneten die de:Indianer der Großen Ebenen (de:Great Plains) die Soldaten der afroamerikanischen Einheiten, die Unionsarmee der de:Nordstaaten zum Ende des US-amerikanischen Bürgerkriegs (1861-1865) aufstellten.
- Die häufig gelockte Haarpracht der schwarzen Soldaten erinnerte die Indianer an die Rückenmähne eines Büffels, des nordamerikanischen Bisons (Buffalo). Mit dem Lied Buffalo Soldier hat der Reggae-Musiker Bob Marley den afroamerikanischen US-Soldaten ein musikalisches Denkmal gesetzt.
- English: Buffalo Soldiers originally were members of the U.S. 10th Cavalry Regiment of the United States Army, formed in 1866 at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. The nickname was given by the Native American tribes they fought in the Indian Wars.
- Although several African-American regiments were raised during the Civil War to fight alongside the Union Army (including the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry and the many United States Colored Troops Regiments), the "Buffalo Soldiers" were established by United States Congress as the first peacetime all-black regiment in the regular U.S. Army.
- Español: Soldados Búfalo originalmente fueron miembros del 10º Regimiento de Caballería del Ejército de los Estados Unidos, creado el 21 de septiembre de 1866 en Fort Leavenworth, en el territorio de Kansas. Al final este término se aplicó a los 9º y 10º Regimientos de Caballería, así como a los 24º y 25º Regimiento de Infantería.
