Legacy transcription retained without substantive editing; rendered current reference profile variants documented in the Phase 10 evidence snapshot.
The inherited rank-1 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 authoritative source expands or normalizes the inherited name from Patrick H. Grace to Patrick Henry Grace; both renderings remain preserved. Documented aliases remain attached to this stable recipient identity: Grace, Henry Patrick. No identity merge or split was performed. The controlled canonical unit or command is U.S.S. Benicia; the current structured profile renders U.S.S. Benicia, and the inherited wording Not documented remains preserved as a separately attributed variant. The current authoritative evidence controls the action date as 1871-06-10 through 1871-06-11 and classifies the action under Korean Campaign 1871; the inherited unnormalized date and conflict values remain preserved in the audit record. The controlled historical action place is Korean Forts, Korea; the current structured place Korean Forts, Korea and the complete inherited geocoder value South Korea remain preserved in the audit evidence. The Society structured action date is 1871-06-10; additional or conflicting date context in the rendered citation is preserved separately. 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.
