Led by various leaders and members, they are going into an all-out war against the Watchmen police forces in order to get what they want.

Origins
In 1985, in the original year of the comics, the Seventh Kavalry had been started as a small group aiming itself for following Rorschach's violent methods and later changed itself into an all-out warfare white supremacy and radical "world peacekeeping" group, before expanding all across New York and later Tulsa, Oklahama, in which they were based.

Not much is known about the true leader or founder of the group, except the fact that Adrian Veidt had led to their creation following his responsibility to Rorschach's death after the latter took the blame for Veidt's plan. They have been rising to power since then, commiting massively destructive acts and murders against the new Watchmen, the police, and, later murders against black-skinned people and women.

During Tulsa's Black Wall Street massacre in 1921, a black child is losing his parents in the ensuing chaos and escorts an orphaned baby to safety.

Following the incident, Chief Judd Crawford calls for retaliation to hunt down the shooter. Angela Abar, a policewoman who "retired" and "runs a bakery", catches wind of the shooting and hunts down a suspect under her secret persona of Sister Night. With help from another vigilante, Looking Glass, she elicits the shooter's location at a cattle ranch used by the Kavalry.

Angela, Judd, and other officers hunt them down; instigating a shootout that results in all Kavalry members' deaths, including the shooter. Some time after the shootout, Judd runs over a spike strip while driving to the hospital to visit Sutton. Angela receives a call from someone who instructs her to find something at a countryside tree. She heads to the location, where she sees an elderly black man in a wheelchair below a hanged Judd, which the hanging was made by the Kavalry itself.
