Page on James A Goodson[edit]

This page has minimum information for the second highest scoting USAAF fighter ace, Europe, going from being on the first maritime casualty of the war, some 30 decorations and a Stalag Luft III POW. You also have WRONG information on his rank, the planes he shot down and the services he served with. Minimal research, or even the cover of his books, would have got some of this right!!

Organization[edit]

Is there a reason why the comment about the Athenia is listed in the "Post-War" section? Can we move that up even above the top section? Jeffholton (talk) 18:31, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
