Not sure where you read that, Alice, but I've heard
and read versions of the story portrayed in the movie "In Pursuit of Honor"
from multiple historical sources. While it likely didn't happen "just like
the movie" yes, something like that did, indeed, happen.

I actually thought it was a true story when it
came out, but have read since that it wasn't true. Thank goodness our military
would never actually do that to their horses!

Seeing as though you have the
Kleenex already bought, get a hold of "In Pursuit of Honour" with Don
Johnson. A REALLY good film - true story about the US Cavalry's
solution to upgrading to tanks.
