Tad photo?

[Steve]

The boy in the photo kind of looks like Tad... but the uniform the boy is wearing doesn't match the uniform Tad is wearing in the Brady and Gardner photos.

Here's a link to the Wikimedia Commons page with photos of Tad from the National Archives:

Tad's uniform has dark blue pants (matching the shirt color) with gold stripes running down the pant legs. The boy in the photo has a lighter shade of blue pants than Tad's with a (thicker) dark blue stripe (possibly red?) running down the leg. Tad's cap has the US wreath officer's crest while the boy has no cap crest. Tad's uniform has a three star general rank shoulder rank insignia while the boy doesn't appear to wear any rank insignia. The boy's uniform also has shoulder straps that are missing from Tad's uniform
