New Commander Young to lead the Army of the United States
Major General Samuel Baldwin Marks Youngs becomes commander of the Army on the retirement of Lieutenant General Miles. A Civil War and Spanish War veteran, Youngs rose from private to general, with service in the Twelfth Pennsylvania, the cavalry, and the Philippines. His ties to President Roosevelt and Secretary Root strengthen his appointment, noted as a five month tenure before the nine year age limit ends in 1904.
