message: Did Bruce Crandall actually serve in the Korean War?  In the side bar it indicates that he did but from the actual biography that would seem improbable if he were drafted in 1953, the war ended in June of that year so that leaves little time to go through training and be deployed to the war.  His medals also do not include a medal for service in the Korean War.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Ddeclue (talk • contribs) 04:50, 26 March 2009
:I think you are right, I've looked at the sources given and a few webpages and can't find any mention of Korea. I've removed it from the article. — jwillbur 05:19, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

message: The 40+ year delay in receiving the Medal of Honor after the action for which it was awarded was presumably due to the same reason as with Ed Freeman:
:Freeman's commanding officer nominated him for the Medal of Honor for his actions at Ia Drang, but not in time to meet a two-year deadline then in place.  He was instead awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.  The Medal of Honor nomination was disregarded until 1995, when the two-year deadline was removed. He was formally presented with the medal on July 16, 2001, in the East Room of the White House by President George W. Bush.
A similar note (if this is the case) should be included in this article. 58.147.58.152 (talk) 01:20, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

message: Retired Lt. Col. Bruce Crandall was promoted April 15, 2010 to the rank of colonel in a ceremony at the AAAA convention in Fort Worth, Texas. According to CW4 (Ret.) Joseph L. Pisano Sr., editor of the Army Aviation Magazine, the Army did this to correct a 40 year administrative mistake.

thread_title:  Promotion to Colonel 

message: While the article talks about his promotion to Colonel (ret), it doesn't talk about his rank advancement during active duty and it seems like it should be there.   Toddst1 (talk) 16:46, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
