Oh, yes you're right! I just remembered that Henry Cabot Lodge had traveled oversea's with Teddy Roosevelt so I just assumed he would be different from the others, as they had all been senators. But I didn't make the connection about the war with Spain! And thanks for the link you sent me...that was very helpful! :)
