About 350 members of the unit spent the weekend in Lexington. Man o’ War, considered one of the greatest race horses of all time, was born on this day in 1917 at Nursery Stud near Lexington. He died at age 30 in November 1947. The Kentucky Horse Park kicks off a 100th-anniversary celebration of Man o’ War on Wednesday, including a preview of the exhibit “The Mostest Horse That Ever Was” at the International Museum of the Horse.
