Sign/Page # Area of Need Changes General Comment Use of names and titles lack consistency

Add proper names, rank, and title to all persons being introducted in each exhibit.

TS10-OR-03/64 Map/cartographer relocate "Saratoga Springs" and have it, and the arrow, pointing west, above the road representing NYS Route 29; relocate the "Saratoga Surrender Site" to just below "Saratoga Siege Trail" (the dots for both should be on the left side of the road); relocate "you are here" marker to its correct location (tour road stop 10); relocate the highlighted road between the Battlefield and Schuylerville, and direct visitors out of the park (from stop 10) along the US Route 4 corridor; add US Route 4 and NYS Routes 29 and 32 identifiers on their respective roadways; "victory" and "Schuylerville" need to be turned 90 degrees (in line with other words); shift the map up - there's too much negative space on the top; update the Saratoga NHP boundary per map sent on August 19; make sure to add a scale to the map. Almost none of this was addressed; so many changes are required, these two additional ones were missed during the last review: remove the two green patches located along Rte. 29 (these represent golf course greens); Also, add a designation for the "Gerald B.H. Solomon Saratoga National Cemetery" above it's location.

TS2-WS-08/76 Layout/Design Add to main text block: Military Chaplains comforted the sick, dying, and wounded. Remove text block below image of chaplain except for painting title. Also remove Ezra Tilden Block quote.

Could consider adding part of quote to main text block.

TS6-WS-03/94 Layout/Design Panel is difficult to read, darken background slighly to enhance leagability of caption text.

TS-WS-05/96 Text Size Increase text size of quote for easier reading.

TS-WS-06/97 Layout/Design Increased in size of the caption text and made part of main text

TS7-WS-01/102 Layout/Design Increase size of subordinate text and incorporate with main body.

TS7-WS-04/105 Layout/Design Move the German Light Infantryman's caption down.Move it away from the action happening in the background painting. The two small soldier figures get lost in the chaos of the background picture. Fade the background image behind the two inset images.

TS9-WS-02/113 Design/Layout Align the two paragraphs of text. Caption text, last paragraph, can remain where it is.

TS10-WS-07/120 Design/Layout Poor design, provide new optional layout using existing text and images.
