Theodore Roosevelt, who was in the Department of the Navy in 1898, resigned to become a colonel in the volunteer cavalry called the Rough Riders, which saw action in Cuba. Following the war (which lasted less than four months), Roosevelt was elected Governor of New York state and selected as the running mate of William McKinley in his reelection campaign in 1900. McKinley won, but was assassinated in September, 1901, making Roosevelt the youngest US President in history.
