The original chain of command for the Rough Riders, officially known as the 1st United States Volunteer Cavalry, included Colonel Leonard Wood as the commanding officer and Theodore Roosevelt as the second-in-command, holding the rank of lieutenant colonel. The regiment was organized in 1898 during the Spanish-American War and consisted of a diverse group of soldiers, including cowboys, miners, and college athletes. The chain of command was structured with various company commanders reporting up to Wood and Roosevelt, who led the unit during its notable charge up San Juan Hill.
