Later he served as a captain of Mounted Rangers in 1832, and then as captain and major of the First Dragoons since its inception in 1833, until he was made lieutenant colonel of the Second Dragoons in 1850. A worthy son of Daniel Boone, he was a finished woodsman and knew the paths leading across the plains of the West.
