Re: Appointment--Lt. Gen. Michael Dowling
I am much gratified and pleased to see Lieutenant General Michael Dowling's appointment as commander of the XVI Corps. His past history with the Army of the Tennessee and his record of achievement will impart a very close and well-ordered character to the XVI Corps, one which, I believe, will quickly earn a reputation for both good camaraderie and successful action upon the battlefields of the ACWGC.
