Assistance Requested for Error Correction in Wikipedia Page for Larry D. Thomas

I am Larry D. Thomas. I just noticed an error in the first sentence of the "Early Career" section of the site. It indicates that I worked as a "probation officer" while working on my degree. I was actually employed as a caseworker for the Harris County (Texas) Social Services Department (I wasn't employed in the probation field until I received my B.A. degree and was discharged from the U. S. Navy). This can be verified through the following link to the University of Houston Alumni Quarterly:

https://issuu.com/houstonalumni/docs/alumlinesummer08 (UH Alumni Quarterly, Summer 2008, page 13)

I would sincerely appreciate this error being corrected and the link added to the reference section of the site. Thank you very much for your kind assistance. 73.98.126.125 (talk) 20:59, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
