President Roosevelt expresses his pleasure at getting to see the regular troops, some of whom served under him and others he served with in Cuba. He gives special praise to the Tennessee state cavalry that escorted him in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He particularly is pleased to hear of their recent ten-day march, feeling that the best training is in field conditions not in the barracks or on the parade ground.
