| | President William McKinley: Health & Medical History |
 | | McKinley was 5 feet 7 inches tall, shorter than the average man. He was ridiculed as a "little boy" when he ran for President in 1896 [7]. |
 | | McKinley's manhood should not have been open to challenge, given that he enlisted in the Army at age 17, just weeks after the Civil War began at Ft. Sumter, and that he served in the field virtually the entire war, including the battles of South Mountain, Antietam, Winchester, Cedar Creek, and countless others [6a]. |
 | | McKinley recovered a few moments later, and resumed her part in the conversation where she had left off [1c]. |
