From Wikipedia:

"William Jennings Bryan (March 19, 1860 – July 26, 1925) was the Democratic Party nominee for President of the United States in 1896, 1900 and 1908, a lawyer, and the 41st United States Secretary of State under President Woodrow Wilson. ...

"Bryan volunteered for combat in the Spanish-American War in 1898, arguing, 'Universal peace cannot come until justice is enthroned throughout the world. Until the right has triumphed in every land and love reigns in every heart, government must, as a last resort, appeal to force.' Bryan became colonel of a Nebraska militia regiment; he spent the war in Florida and never saw combat."
