To add to your list, these presidents were also combat veterans.

     Gen. George Washington (Revolutionary War)
     James Monroe (Revolutionary War)
     Gen. Andrew Jackson (War of 1812)
     William Henry Harrison (French-Indian Wars)
     Gen. Zachary Taylor (Mexican War)
     Franklin Pierce (Mexican War)
     Gen. Ulysses S. Grant (Civil War)
     Gen. Rutherford B. Hayes (Civil War)
     Gen. James A. Garfield (Civil War)
     Col. Benjamin Harrison (Civil War)
     Maj. William McKinley (Civil War)
     Lt. Col. Teddy Roosevelt (Spanish American)
     Capt. Harry S. Truman (WW I)
     Gen of the Armies Dwight D. Eisenhower (WW II)
     Lt. Cmdr Richard Nixon (WW II)
     Lt. Cmdr Gerald Ford (WW II)
     Jimmy Carter (Cold War)

If there's no rank associated with the person, it's that I couldn't quickly
find their highest attained rank.
