Talk:Transcontinental Motor Convoy

Bad information?
This sentence seems to contradict itself from the first main paragraph.

"McMahon was to have been the expedition's commanding officer, until he was replaced three days before its departure; instead, McMahon served as commander of the convoy."

It seems to say that although McMahon was supposed to be the commander, he was the commander instead. :) Also later on it says somebody else is commander, one Charles McClure.  Anyone know anything about that?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Halfhoot (talk • contribs) 17:08, 11 December 2007 (UTC)


 * If you look in the report it's a bit clearer -- there was the Expedition Commander, Col. McClure, and then under him was the Train Commander, Capt. McMahon. As I understand it -- I didn't put it in the article since I need to find something to back it up, but it seems clear in the subtext of Lt. Jackson's report -- McMahon did all the work preparing the expedition, and then at the last minute some people higher up in the Army thought it would be a political plum or a fun change of pace and took over or got attached as observers. --Stlemur (talk) 17:24, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
