It would be nice to have an article on Wikipedia for this person. He is already mentioned twice on Wiki - on list of Brig Gens and on the 18th Infantry page.  A real basic proposed article was submitted on 5 Feb 2018. See:

1899 - PHILIPPINE ISLANDS - 1999 First Tour of Duty - Battle Streamer inscribed "ILOHO"

The year 1899 found the 18th Infantry engaged in a number of nasty guerilla actions in the jungles of Panay. The ragtag army of "Insurectos", armed mostly with muskets, shotguns, machetes, and Bolo knives, were no match for the well armed and disciplined soldiers of the 18th Infantry. However, hit-and-run jungle ambushes resulted in many casualties, and the Bolo Knife was so feared and effective that it came to symbolize the Philippine Insurrection on the distinctive unit insignia of many of the Army units that fought there, including the unit crest of the 18th Infantry. In June, COL Van Valzah retired and COL Gilbert S. Carpenter assumed command. COL Carpenter enlisted as a Private in Company F, 2nd Battalion, 18th Infantry, in September 1861, receiving a field promotion to Lieutenant in June 1862. During the Philippine campaign he had risen in rank to Brigadier General, USV, but resigned to accept command of his old regiment. In October, COL Carpenter created a "mounted" detachment of the 18th Infantry. Known as "Gordon's Scouts" for it's commander, Captain Walter H. Gordon, it ranged freely and effectively through the jungle in pursuit of lnsurectos. In December 1899, the 18th Infantry changed station from Iloilo to Capiz, still on the Island of Panay, where COL Carpenter was promoted Brigadier General and retired with 40 years of honorable service.
