C.) ZACHARY TAYLOR was the Mexican-American War general who was given the nickname "old rough and ready".

He earned the nickname because he was known to be open to his troops in sharing his hardships of field duty.

He was also the 12th President of the United States. However, his term was cut short when he died from cholera-morbus after only seating as President for 16 months.
