Legacy transcription retained without substantive editing; current rendered profile variants documented in the Phase 10 evidence snapshot.
The current profile adds the middle initial, preserves Private as the action rank and Corporal as the highest/later rank, and confirms the Santiago de Cuba action place. The canonical profile was resolved through archival reference search outside the inherited candidate set.
