Old Corps versus New Regiments in junior Major arrangements
Fragmentary note discusses a shifting of juniors between the Old Corps and New Regiments, claiming slight effects on regularity but no material change. The text notes this issue would arise in any prior system and does not hinge on the specific plan.
Army rank vs regimental class in promotions
The text discusses whether officers starting in a lower class who move up due to removals may claim removal to higher standing. It cites Captain Wiggins and Lieutenant Mackie as examples where army standing higher than regimental rank permits shifts. It also notes Ensigns in similar situations and notes potential departures from strict principles.
