Friends and Vets.  I happened to run across the collar brass of my grandfather Col. Robert G. St. James. Col. St.James was a private in the 11th. Cav. Co. M in Cuba from 1904-08 when his enlistment was up.  In 1908 he had attained the rank of buck sgt.  I have access to photographs of the 11th. Co. M. in Cuba.  If copies of these would be of any value to the association, please let me know.  Col. St. James, rejoined the Army in 1917 , was commissioned a 1st. Lt.. Fought with 7th. Inf. Reg. 3rd. Div. in France in WW1. Was medically retired in August of 1945 as a full Colonel.
