He was a grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt through his father, Brig. Gen. Theodore Roosevelt III.<ref name="eagle">Template:Cite news</ref> His name suffix varies since President Roosevelt's father was Theodore Roosevelt Sr., though the same-named son did not commonly use a "Jr." name suffix.

Early life

Service in World War II

In recent years, he attended TRA Police Awards ceremonies in Boston and Philadelphia as well as TRA annual meetings in Boston and Norfolk, VA. He was an honorary plank owner in the USS Theodore Roosevelt, and a strong supporter of the efforts to preserve the Pine Knot site in Virginia, his grandparents' presidential retreat.Template:Citation needed
