Depends on the Country. Germany, Italy, and the Soviet Union fielded 
mounted units during the war. The U.S. had a mounted division during 
42, but starting in 43 the 2nd cavalry was dismounted and served in 
the Pacific. In addition, the 2nd cavalry division was the last quad 
U.S. Army division (had four regiments in two brigades, the last 
regular army formation with that set up).
