Henry Mike Reeve Carroll was a brigadier general in Cuba's Ejército Libertador – more commonly known as the Ejército Mambí – during the Ten Years' War (1868–1878). In his youth, he was a drummer boy in the Union Army during the American Civil War. During his entire service in Cuba, he wore his US Army uniform. Reeve participated in approximately 400 engagements against Spanish forces, rising through the ranks quickly. Ignacio Agramonte nicknamed him "El Inglesito" due to his fair complexion and foreign origin.
