English: Charles W. Porter III, Chief Historian, NPS to Kitteridge Wing, Supt., GNMP, June 16, 1963. Page 1.
Description
English:

Typed and handwritten document, black text on white paper.

A handwritten note from the GNMP Historian details the Official Records submitted by Major Bane for the 4th Texas indicating the command devolves from Col. John Key to Major Bane but states “It can be safely assumed however, that Lt. Col. Carter succeeded Colonel Key.” Tilberg also indicates “The last line could be considered praise.” A phrase that could violate the restriction that a monument inscription can “neither praise nor censure.” The text Tilberg is referring to is: “Of all the gallant fights they made none was grander than Gettysburg.” Tilberg’s note is initialed by Supt. Wing on June 17th.
