There are conflicting sources of information about whether or not Willie York actually served in Vietnam. Several newspaper articles state that he was a Vietnam veteran, but a biography on the Facebook page that is dedicated to him says that he did not, in fact, serve in-country in Vietnam, but was actually stationed in Panama during his military service, training to go to Vietnam. I am trying to find additional sources that can back up either claim. StrikerforceTalk19:07, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
