Hoover.

This is coolbert:

A pacifist but not without military experience, even if indirectly so. 

And President of the United States. Herbert Hoover.

I highly recommend without qualification or reservation this item as from the Internet web site Strategy Page Professor Al Nofi CIC # 468.

"Profile - Herbert Hoover: Businessman in the White House"

"An engineer, noted scholar, pacifist, and humanitarian, Herbert Hoover (1874-1964) became president at a time of unprecedented prosperity, but left office in the midst of the worst economic crisis in the nation’s history."

. . . .

"Herbert Hoover never served in uniform. But he did have some informal military experience."

Indirect combat experience during  the Chinese Boxer Rebellion. Indirect experience during a time of war DURING and AFTER the Great War [WW1]. Organizing and distributing humanitarian food assistance to the starving populations of Europe DURING and AFTER the war. AFTER the war to include the Soviet Union! Millions of lives saved!

This all an aspect of the legacy of Herbert Hoover. That legacy of course tainted in a severe manner by the Great Depression. The legacy of Hoover however not complete and fully understood unless without regard to those years of the man prior to his Presidency and thank you Professor Al.
