First and last all the officers of the regiment fell victims, ex- 143 THEODORE ROOSEVELT cepting Colonel Roosevelt and one other. The colonel's orderly lost eighty pounds in weight. Half of the members of the command were down at one time. All were in rags. Even the officers were without socks and underclothing. If there was only one shoulder-strap on Roosevelt's shirt at San Juan, there was now none at all. Nothing but the yellow stripes on his riding breeches showed that he was an officer. Th...e college athletes had lost their vigor. The once hardy hunters and dashing cowboys lay lan- guidly in their miserable dog-tents. The gallant little army, which had overthrown the soldiers of Spain, was undergoing destruction by a foe with no banners flying or bugles blaring, but which, un- heard and unseen, assailed by day and by night. It was a most serious emergency, and to Colonel Roose- velt belongs the credit of rising to it, and meeting it. In the course of his testimony before the Com- mission of Investigation at Washington, he de- scribed a scene in battle, when his regiment was under a heavy fire and without orders to move.
