Letter from William T. Hornaday to Theodore Roosevelt
William T. Hornaday is frustrated with the “overwise” enlistment methods employed by the United States Army, which has seen his friend denied for having flat arches. Hornaday agrees with Theodore Roosevelt that the United States has been “slow on the draw” and cites New York’s military census as another example of failure.
