Legacy transcription retained without substantive editing; rendered current reference profile variants documented in the Phase 10 evidence snapshot.
The inherited rank-4 Society candidate was confirmed by substantive comparison of identity, service, rank, unit or command, action context, and citation; candidate rank or successful rendering alone was not treated as verification. The current evidence expands or refines the inherited display name Henry Mclaren Pinckney Huse to Henry McLaren Pinckney Huse; the inherited form remains preserved as a separately attributed variant. The current profile also supplies the separately retained rank rendering Captain (Highest Rank: Vice Admiral); action and later or highest ranks remain separately attributed. The controlled canonical unit or command is Not documented; the current structured profile renders Not documented, and the inherited wording Not documented remains preserved as a separately attributed variant. The controlled action-date display is April 21–22, 1914; the current structured source value and any fuller citation chronology remain separately attributed. The controlled historical action place is Vera Cruz, Mexico; the current structured place Vera Cruz, Mexico and the complete inherited geocoder value Heroica Veracruz, Veracruz, Mexico remain preserved in the audit evidence. The inherited rank-4 Society candidate was accepted only after substantive comparison of identity, service, rank, Vera Cruz action context, and citation. The current structured date gives April 21, while the rendered citation covers April 21–22; both are preserved. 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.
