The Army changed it's ranking structure after Vietnam to better spread out the ranks due to the large number of soldiers in the Army after Nam. One stripe was PFC before the new rank system went into effect prior to VietNam. They didn't have "Private E1" and "Private E2" then. A private was a private. It went 0 stripe=private, 1 stripe=PFC, 2 stripe=Corporal, 3 stripe=Sergeant, and so on. Before the new rank structure, "specialist (E4)" was only used for "technical" MOS's, not combat arms.

The "then-unknown" Bob Denver? He had already starred as Maynard G. Krebs on The Many Loves Of Dobie Gillis for five years! Unless anyone objects, I'm changing this reference...

Good call. That's an example of my reading way too much into a statement. I read that here but you're right, it says nothing about him being "unknown." I went ahead and removed the comment, and cited the reference for good measure. Thanks. Wavy G 21:59, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


- In the "Songs Performed..." what about "Slimy River Bottom?" Is it a real song or a shemp for one of the listed songs?

He must have taken the wrong Army uniform home. He's wearing Private stripes, yet he's a PFC. GoodDay (talk) 18:32, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Army changed it's ranking structure after Vietnam to better spread out the ranks due to the large number of soldiers in the Army after Nam. One stripe was PFC before the new rank system went into effect prior to VietNam. They didn't have "Private E1" and "Private E2" then. A private was a private. It went 0 stripe=private, 1 stripe=PFC, 2 stripe=Corporal, 3 stripe=Sergeant, and so on. Before the new rank structure, "specialist (E4)" was only used for "technical" MOS's, not combat arms.

Fair use rationale for Image:Darlings.jpg

Image:Darlings.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
