I have rewritten and expanded this article. There were a couple of pieces of unsourced information (the Senator's date of birth and his Good Conduct Medal) that I could not verify. I have tagged them. Also, if anyone feels ambitious to help convert some urls to full-fledged footnotes, the assistance would be most welcome. SunCrow ( talk) 05:42, 20 October 2018 (UTC) reply
