Typescript: Comments on General Order 421, probably 1894
An unknown author comments on General Order 421 that consolidated the Naval War College and the Naval Torpedo Station into one command. The document is typed with many handwritten edits and comments. The author presents an argument that the consolidation is not effective ending his report saying "the union is, in short, forced and unnatural. It might well be permitted to die."
