For someone who isn't aware of Regular Army practices of the time might stumble over it like I did without seeing the connection. Husnock 15:32, 24 July 2005 (UTC) Maybe just a sentence saying that it wasn't uncommon might be a good thing. Ebralph 15:25, 24 July 2005 (UTC) Regular Army liks are pretty well scattered throughout the article, including in the Dates of Rank section.

Maybe adding a reference to the Regular Army link with a sentence that that was the norm might be a good idea.

Husnock 14:29, 22 July 2005 (UTC) I don't know, but I didn't feel that it was explained well enough in the article - of course that's my personal impression. Most officers held Regular Army rank in the O-2 and O-3 grades for 10-15 years and advanced through brevet commissions. And back in those days slow promotions were the norm. It took him 10 years to get promoted and later down the road he skips several ranks? That is very odd and should be discussed in some form in this article.-Ebralph 13:32, 22 July 2005 (UTC) Its discussed rather well, I think.
