Lincoln served a total of 90 days, his first 30 day enlistment as a Captain and the other two as a Private, he had amazing insights in the operations of War, that would be obvious later.

Polk attained the rank of Colonel and served in the Calvary.

I stand corrected. What regiment did FDR serve in?

It seems more likely that he served in the Cavalry.

Sorry, pet peeve of mine.
