Battle over credit for 1898 Cuban fleet victory sought final settle
The long standing dispute over whether Sampson or Schley deserved chief credit for the July 3 1898 naval action off Santiago is to be settled by a Dewey headed board of inquiry. Supporters cite Sampsons organizing skill and cool leadership while Schleys backers point to his combat involvement. The inquiry aims to end the bitter rivalries between veteran admirals and assign blame and praise appropriately.
