Description
They went to Tampa, Florida at the end of May and sailed for Santiago de Cuba on June 13. There they joined the Fifth Corps, another highly trained, well supplied, and enthusiastic group consisting of excellent soldiers from the regular army and volunteers. The Rough Riders saw battle at Las Guásimas when General Samuel B. M. Young was ordered to attack at this village, three miles north of Siboney on the way to Santiago. Although it was not important to the outcome of the war, news of the action quickly made the papers. They also made headlines for their role in the Battle of San Juan Hill, which became the stuff of legend thanks to Roosevelts writing ability and reenactments filmed long after. In memorial to the Rough Riders, who in fact departed to Santiago from the United States in Tampa, Florida, a current day First U.S. Volunteer Cavalry was formed in Tampa out of recognition to those brave men.
