Skinny?

Do we have a source that Skinny was his nickname?? --AW 08:44, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Red Army?

"Wainwright was then held in prison camps in northern Luzon, Formosa, and Manchuria until his liberation by the Red Army[1] in August 1945." The "Red Army" link points to the Russian Red Army. I don't think the Russians were ever in the Phillipines. C. Pergiel. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.117.211.59 (talk) 04:02, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Then LtG Wainwright was being held in Manchuria where he was transfered from the Philippines.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 11:54, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Medal of Honor

I MAY be wrong, so I won't try to change it, but isn't the Medal of Honor supposed to be on a level by itself? Right now, the ribbon rack has it sharing a row.69.142.70.108 (talk) 20:15, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind my comment. I was incorrect. I just talked to someone who certainly knows, and as long as MOH is 1st, it can share a row with certain other ribbons. Sorry for the interruption.69.142.70.108 (talk) 20:49, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
