Horses were used by the soldiers not only for war reasons but for other reasons too such as transporting, plowing, etc. Horses were a big part in War & in everyday life too.

Soldiers with their horses were very ... Bipolar. Some men took their horse as their everything because they supported them, helped them, & was always there. But on the other hand, some soldiers wouldn't care & when their horse died it didn't affect them at all.
