False information

A lot of Erickson's bio is of his own fabrication. He was 7 years younger than he claimed, never fought in World War I, had business dealings with Germany during World War II, and began spying in 1942. http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2013/09/how-an-american-nazi-collaborator-became-an-allied-spy/279768/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.121.160.79 (talk) 20:04, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that the whole "Details" section was added in 2011 by an IP based on a work of fiction, The Final Summit by Andy Andrews in this edit! I will remove that information now, of course. Debresser (talk) 10:49, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
