Rough Riders
The Rough Riders were the troops under Theodore Roosevelt's command.
The Rough Riders were a volunteer cavalry unit. The unit was made of athletes and cowboys as well as general adventurers.

The men were recruited from the Southwest and because they were athletic and training in shooting and riding a horse they were useful in the war with little investment from the government.
