(The Center Square) – A small border community in Brackettville, Texas, that’s been under siege for three years by cartel operatives and human smugglers has been receiving help nearly every day for 30 months from sheriff’s deputies traveling roughly 400 miles from Galveston County. They’ve been described as the modern-day cavalry – following in the footsteps of a previous cavalry first stationed there over 150 years ago.
