[edit] Error with Navy service description

In the Early life and tragedy section the page refers to Sam Rice fighting in the "ill-fated Battle of Vera Cruz in Mexico". This battle took place in in 1847, 50 years before his birth during the Mexican-American war. Mr. Rice was serving during the Occupation of Vera Cruz in 1914 which was in response to an insurrection taking place in Mexico during that time.
