Title
List of Nominations & Sundry Military Affairs
Description
McHenry notes that the President has not commented on his list of nominations of officers for the Additional Army. He has finished his report to the President on American military affairs and awaits the response of Congress. It would not be wise to appoint a foreigner to lead the 2nd Regiment of Artillery.
