Legacy transcription retained without substantive editing; rendered current reference profile variants documented in the Phase 10 evidence snapshot.
The canonical current reference profile was resolved through a controlled archival reference search outside the inherited candidate set after the inherited candidate slugs did not provide the verified profile. Every inherited candidate and failed URL remains preserved; candidate rank and HTTP behavior were not treated as verification. The current authoritative source expands or normalizes the inherited name from Daniel Campbell to Daniel J. Campbell; both renderings remain preserved. The controlled canonical unit or command is U.S.S. Marblehead; the inherited wording Not documented remains preserved as a separately attributed variant. The current authoritative evidence controls the action date as 1898-05-11 and classifies the action under Spanish-American War; the inherited unnormalized date and conflict values remain preserved in the audit record. The controlled historical action place is Cienfuegos, Cuba; the complete inherited geocoder value Cienfuegos, Cuba remains preserved in the audit evidence. The inherited full citation remains canonical and checksum-protected; current rendered wording is preserved separately where transcribed. No underlying General Order was examined, so the exact-order gate remains pending and no General Order verification is claimed.
