Jeb Stuart Smith was named after his idol, Confederate General J.E.B. Stuart. He joined the U.S. Army during World War II under the name Jeb Stuart, and was placed in command of an M3 Stuart tank. Supernatural forces assigned the ghost of General J.E.B. Stuart to be the guardian of Jeb Stuart and his tank crew, however only Jeb himself could see or hear him. Sometime after the war ended Jeb was promoted to the rank of General, and beginning in the early 1950s he served as the head of the military side of Task Force X.
