  • Board service re-checked against the vault: the on-page employer name is “Taiwanese American Association of Great D.C. Areas” (2002–2003). The nearest existing vault page, |TAA Greater Washington, carries a different organization name — flagged as a candidate match only, not merged (name mismatch = HOLD per merge policy).
  • No additional vault-internal facts beyond the 2026-09-11 pass below; all its cited targets disk-verified.
