In WWI and WWII, the horse was still used for hauling artillery. They carried officers. They were used to get to places that vehicles couldn't . Horses were more widely used in the first world war, but by WWII, they were being phased out as more machinery became available. However, horses are still used in the military today, as recently as Afghanistan to navigate troops through the mountainous terrain.
