Robert E. Lee on Traveller
- ... that at the unveiling of Alexander Phimister Proctor's statue of Robert E. Lee (pictured) in 1936, President Franklin D. Roosevelt called Lee "one of our greatest American gentlemen"?[1]

- The push of the article has little to do with the FDR quote, which is only a piece of trivia in that context. I might recommend tweaking so that the reader understands a little about what makes this statue special or distinctive, instead of just another random park statue. City, or example, or mention the sculptor is notable or the year it was revealed, to provide at least a little context besides FDR's opinion of Lee. 47.185.218.146 (talk) 01:53, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
