This is correct.
drmiller - be careful when restoring the taillamp brackets and fasteners. They originally had star washers, designed to gouge the paint and provide the electrical ground for the tail lamp and turn signal. If you do "too good" a job in this area then you will lose the ground and your turn signals will not work correctly.
Or - you can add an additional ground wire, snaked from the bulb socket through the wire harness and attached to the frame. This was a suitable (and classy) fix.
