When somebody refers to you as a troop or one of the troops does that make you proud or offended?

When I was young I watched "F Troop" on TV and assumed Troop referred to cavalry units and soldiers. Then I grew interested in military history and learned that soldiers and marines deploying to fight in WWI, WWII and Korea were frequently referred to as troops. After I enlisted in 1974, I learned about cavalry units both ceremonial with real horses and more frequently air and armored cavalry troops which were parts of squadrons.
The air cavalry formations have largely disappeared from the Army formations. There are some ceremonial cavalry formation sin the Old Guard and 1st CAV and a number of armored cavalry formations still in the Army.
Background: by time of the U.S. Civil War the Cavalry troop was equivalent to an infantry company or an artillery battery. The soldiers assigned to a cavalry troop were known as troopers. Modern people tend to call all Civil War soldiers troops but that wasn't the case back in the day.
In the twentieth century being called a troop was much better than being called a grunt [ground replacement usually not trained].
A troop can refer to one person or a unit while trooper is usually reserved for cavalry troopers, paratroopers, etc. :-)
For current military and veterans would you be honored if somebody referred to you as one of the troops.
