@ User:PRehse Thank you for your edits, I was struggling on the honorifics, trying to keep them straight, having the MOS prevail is the right decision and makes the article easier to read.
Fighting what has been termed one of the bloodiest battles fought in modern warfare may have some relevance as to why Long took up karate, I thought that the Marine KIAs and the quote from the memorial inferred that Chosin is more historically significant than most modern battles. (With weapons malfunctioning in the cold (the firing pin lubrication frozen) a good proportion of the killing was likely hand to hand.)
Concerning, Primary sources, I have a lot of reprints of the biography that was apparently originally authored by Long's student Phil Little. At first, I thought that these were all identical copy-paste, but in most cases I found nuances within various publications, sometimes with organization specific facts inserted, slightly different accounting of events and even just a unique title, "Harold G. Long (Inducted in 1981)" gave me at least an authoritative cite to one of the inductions.
Long's biography is published in two formal books, one is copy paste of Little's eulogy, the other is in prose. Coupled with his awards and the books he authored, I think notability is firmly established. What can we do about your Template:Primary tag? Would it help if I used the quote parameter in the citation templates to denote the nuances in the record? Thanks again! -- 009o9 ( talk) 13:57, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
Google has turned up several new references, several from Black Belt magazine. I've removed the Primary sources tag, let's allow the article sit awhile (unprejudiced) and see if any neutral editors have a problem with the sourcing. 009o9 ( talk) 01:15, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Harold G. Long. Please take a moment to review
my edit. You may add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{
