And then someone dug up a letter from Byrd to the Grand Wizard from 1945 where he was like "we must stop the race mongreling in the military, I would rather move to France than serve in the military with a Negro".
I'm sure he's really, really sorry.

You didn't read the same article -- the article I read did not have any of that.
Like I said, not the greatest apology I've ever read -- but Helms still believes his position was right. To me, that seems different.
