Two years after graduating from Campbell College in 1963, he enlisted in the United States Army.

In 1990 he retired to New Bern, NC, from his job as section chief of the Domestic Terrorism Branch of the FBI headquarters.

During Mewborn's retirement, he devoted his time to the study of the American Civil War, especially Confederate Colonel John S. Mosby. He wrote several books about Mosby and other Civil War topics and gave numerous talks to Civil War Roundtables. Mewborn died on December 14, 2019, at his home in New Bern, NC.
