Merle haggard

In intro is says he’s well known for working with Meeks haggard. Is that true? 2001:56A:7745:DE00:D1BC:5A10:A4EC:85B0 (talk) 13:53, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Army Air Force?

Am I reading this wrong? It says he was a staff sergeant in the Army Air Force, but then it says he was in the Navy. Which is it? 69.116.155.37 (talk) 23:42, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The claim that he was in the Army Air Force was added in this recent edit. No source was provided, and it contradicts two existing sources that say he was in the Navy, so I have removed it. CodeTalker (talk) 01:02, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Image

After reverting the recent image change, i wanted to get a consensus about the main image on this page. I came across this one on the commons > [1] It’s a great deal more recent & in my opinion a better overall photo. Would love to get everyone’s thoughts.

Father's heritage

Just making sure that Max Rickles (Don Rickles's father) was of Litvak (Lithuanian Jewish) heritage, assuming that both of Don Rickles's parents were of Jewish heritage. 98.123.38.211 (talk) 02:00, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
