General lieutenant army officer
Adna was born on April 14, 1842 in Orwell, Ohio, United States
At the age of nineteen, Adna enlisted in the 6th United States Cavalry. He fought Indians in various western campaigns and participated in George Crook's campaign in 1883. The village of El Caney was captured by his brigade in a major encounter prior to the battle for Santiago. Chaffee headed the Relief Expedition to China at the time of the Boxer rebellion (1900) and became a major general in the regular army, Feb. 4, 1901.
He remained in the army after the war and took part with distinction in many Indian campaigns.In the Cuban campaign, he won particular distinction, and the victory of the Americans in the action of El Caney was in large measure due to his careful personal reconnaissances of the ground to be attacked and to the endurance of his own brigade. He took a brilliant and successful part in the advance on Peking and the relief of the Legations.
In 1901 he became a major-general in the regular army, and in 1901-1902 commanded the Division of the Philippines. He was retired at his own request on the 1st of February 1906, after more than forty years' service.
