Explanation:

These questions relate to the life of John J. Pershing, a US military officer.

1. Historical records note that when Pershing (who was of mixed heritage and faced racial discrimination) encountered a white lieutenant and his wife while out with his own wife, the lieutenant's wife publicly humiliated him with a loud complaint over his presence.
2. Pershing never served under the alias Captain Foster; he used his own name throughout his military career, so this statement is false.
3. Due to Pershing's frequent military postings and deployments, he and his wife Alice lived apart for many years during their marriage.

Answer:

1. a loud complaint
2. false
3. Pershing and Alice lived apart from each other
