    Thanks lifeasdaddy, for your link to the NYTimes article (in the adjacent photo) about the event. It's a great read. We'll fill in the caption information and add the date next time we update this record.

    LOC -- Bain misspelled Gen. Liggett's name. This is Brigadier General Hunter Liggett, president of the Army War College, who was commander of the Gettysburg encampment during the 1913 reunion. Fort Hunter Liggett in California was named for him. He would have been 56 when this picture was taken. Wikipedia entry for Hunter Liggett: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Liggett
