First Lieutenant Karl Jobst was a regular army office in the 7th US Infantry who was stationed at Fort Benton, Montana Territory. When the Second Mexican War began in 1881, he found himself detailed to the 1st Montana Cavalry as Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's adjutant. At first, Roosevelt suspected that he was nothing more than a watchdog for Colonel Henry Welton, but soon began to warm to the man, even impressing him with his skill for military tactics.
