He wrote his exact method of getting out of the Army to a Freudian friend still serving, who ignored the letter and stayed in for the duration; the same man used to attend Neville's New York meetings and told him he gripped his chair to keep hold of reality against Neville's theories.

Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [542824] belong to telling lecture nids [1745]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1968 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1968 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 25 July 1968
bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1968 to before 1968-07-25.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 1745 (certain delivery 1968-07-25); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1968`, an envelope over delivery YEARS computed without reading text. Its premise is that the fact is true by the time it is told; on that same premise the DAY of the telling is a strictly better upper bound. Nothing is re-decided — the bound is stated to the precision the evidence always supported. The delivery claim for 1968-07-25 on nid 1745 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
after March 1943
bound · probable
Why
Lower bound only; the existing certain before-1968-07-25 bound already caps the other end.
Reasoning
The witness passage says Neville wrote to the friend 'when I got out of the Army by the application of this law... honorably discharged', so the letter-writing (and the friend's rejection of it) happened after his own discharge. The corpus's Army-discharge anchor places that at March 1943, but caps derived claims at probable because it rests on Neville's own decades-later recollection rather than a record; this derived bound respects that ceiling.

Why
M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 021)
Reasoning
Passage 542824: he wrote the friend, then serving, after his own honourable discharge (approved 15 March 1943, event 8415); the friend stayed in for the duration of the war, which ended in 1945 (compare 17272, 'c. 1945'). Flag F0460 lists duplicates 6181, 6208, 15352; not verified here.
