- The McClellan saddle was a riding saddle designed by George B. McClellan, after his tour of Europe as the member of a military commission charged with studying the latest developments in engineer and cavalry forces including field equipment. Based on his observations, McClellan proposed a design that was adopted by the Army in 1859. The McClellan saddle was a success and continued in use in various forms until the US Army's last horse cavalry and horse artillery was dismounted late in World War II. Today, the McClellan saddle is used by ceremonial mounted units in the US Army. The saddle was used by several other nations, including Rhodesia and Mexico, and to a degree by the British in the Boer War. The saddle came in various seat sizes that predominantly ranged from approximately 11 to 12 ½ inches. (en)
- La selle McClellan est une selle d'équitation conçue par George McClellan, un officier de carrière de l'Armée des États-Unis, après un voyage en Europe où il avait la mission d'observer les armées européennes durant la guerre de Crimée (1855). Basée sur ses observations, la selle que McClellan propose est adoptée par l'armée américaine en 1859. La selle McClellan est un succès et est utilisée par l'armée américaine jusqu'à ce que la cavalerie à cheval disparaisse, en janvier 1942, durant la seconde Guerre mondiale, laissant la place aux unités motorisées. La selle McClellan est toujours utilisée lors de cérémonies de l'armée américaine. (fr)
