Transcriber's Notes:
[Page 16], "Eight" changed to "Eighth" (Seventh, Eighth, E, and)
[Page 47], "Amphitheatre" changed to "Amphitheater" to match photo caption (Amphitheatre, Arlington)
[Page 47], the numbers were cut off of the original image on the final column of the Table of Contents. All but one of the numbers could be ascertained by checking the original. The entry for the War Department was unclear as it was clearly a single number, but the War Department shows up on pages 15 and 18. These were both included in the Table of Contents.
