Legacy transcription retained without substantive editing; rendered current reference profile variants documented in the Phase 10 evidence snapshot.

The current authoritative source expands, corrects, or normalizes the inherited name from Robert L. Howze to Robert Lee Howze; both renderings remain preserved. The current profile records later/highest rank Major General. The current historical action-place wording replaces only the controlled canonical geocoder field; the complete inherited place remains preserved.
