Another great photo from "Colorized History"
TR ... true American bad ass. Here he is in his Rough Rider uniform. If you have never read what, exactly, he did during the Battle of San Juan Hill, it is actually quite amazing. Simply put the Spanish with their Mausers were whooping the Americans.
Here's a link to the story of the battle and TR's role in getting his men up the hill in the face of withering fire from enemy troops on the high ground: http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/roughriders.htm
