Date mistake
[edit]The article says:
- Retired from active duty on 21 December 1894, Admiral Wainwright died in Washington, D.C.
How could he have retired before the Spanish-American War? Maybe it's confusing Wainrights. His father was in the U.S. Navy also, so maybe it was his dad who retired in 1894. 71.82.169.63 01:46, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
- Oops, his father died in 1862, so that's not the explanation. 71.82.169.63 01:54, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
- Checking the source, I've fixed the dates. Jinian 01:57, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
