[GreenKeys] Navy Drops All Caps Format

[Duncan Brown]

"Printing telegraphs" were built & patented in the mid 1800s, soon after 
the development of the telegraph, but did not become practical until the 
early 1900s.  The earliest indication of use of a teleprinter by the US  
Navy is in a 10 Aug 1922 article in the New York Times:
