Is his full name correct here?

[edit]

Regardless of whether Elwood Richard Quesada is his actual full name, it should be noted that a Time magazine cover story listed his full name as Elwood Ricardo Gonzalo Quesada. John Dhabolt (talk) 09:10, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I'm wondering if it's appropriate to cite British Orders after his name, given that as an American military officer, while he could accept the orders, it would have been considered inappropriate and questionably legal for him to use them, himself, owing to a constitutional prohibition on titles of nobility. It's my understanding that institutions such as the Order of the Bath, while not exactly nobility, still are an extension of the British peerage system. Izuko (talk) 13:58, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Discrepancis in Rank and promotions

[edit]

Quesada's 1946 bio[1] lists different dates for 2LT, Major, Col. (missing in the article), and Brig. Gen. If no one objects, I'll WP:BOLD and update it. Rob Rosenberger (talk) 18:31, 30 June 2024 (UTC) Rob Rosenberger (talk) 18:31, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
