Medal of Honor

The article states he won a Medal of honor, but i can find no mention of it on lists of recipients. Falcon8765 ^(TALK) 20:03, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

DCartano: The correction was made. A copy of the citation and a photo of the medal are now included. He was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dcartano (talk • contribs) 00:13, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Link for Seattle Times obituary?

Is "Mementos told life of John Cartano, 96" the obituary cited in the article? It is from The Seattle Times, and it's dated 31 July 2005, but it doesn't support everything that the footnotes do. —C.Fred (talk) 02:13, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

DCartano: The following additional authority from publications and public documents have now been added as support:

1 Factual representation: President of the Seattle Chapter of the Reserve Officers Association for two years.

Authority: Destroyer Escort Sailors Association, Volume I, pp. 213-214, Turner Publishing Co., 1987, Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 86-051635.

2. Factual representation: Campaign manager for Eisenhower's presidential campaign in the State of Washington in 1956.

Authority: Letter from President Eisenhower addressed to John D. Cartano, as State Chairman, Citizens for Eisenhower, dated October 18, 1956, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Eisenhower_letter_to_Cartano.pdf

3. Factual representation: Student body Vice President, University of Washington.
