With all due respect to the two distinguished gentleman, I would really rather have a clear look at that car.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Veterans of the American Civil War, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

Fans of the Bain photostream last saw General Liggett pictured here in photos from July, 1913, when he presided over the 50th-anniversary encampment of veterans of the Battle of Gettysburg -- an event attended by President Woodrow Wilson and Vice President Thomas Marshall, among others:

I had the dubious pleasure of serving one of my 2 week active duty stints in the National Guard at Hunter Liggett Military Reservation. That was in the late 60's. The post is located not far from central California's King City. It is now officially called U.S. Army Garrison Fort Hunter Liggett. It gets plenty hot there.

One might observe that neither the heat nor the location of Fort Hunter Liggett can be considered to be the fault of General Liggett.

LOC -- this should be corrected to Liggett, not Leggett. Other Bain/LOC photos of General Hunter Liggett, commander of the 50th anniveresary encampment at Gettysburg: www.flickr.com/search/?q=leggett&w=8623220@N02

Wystan: Thank you for the correction. We'll correct our data for this and the other related photos.
