Regarding the image... I ain't seein' it. -- EmperorBMA / ブリイアン 12:57, 18 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- It's one of the victims of the Great Image Glitch of January '04. I notice that the notice on the Village Pump has stopped saying they expect the images to come back sooner or later, and started suggesting people re-upload the images; maybe someone'd better take the link off the article for now, either way. --Paul A 15:33, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Norwegian?
I hear a lot about his norwegian origins... Is it true?
- Considering the name Anderson and that he comes from Minnesota, it seems likely that he has Scandinavian heritage, anyway.
[edit] McGyver
There should be more than a passing reference to his part in this show, since he starred in it for quite a few seasons. --69.210.64.18 03:25, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- 7 seasons. StargateX1 18:12, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Roseville
The roseville, mn wiki page claims he's from Roseville, not Minneapolis.
[edit] Father???
Isn't his father Richard Anderson, The boss on "The Six Million Dollar Man" and "The Bionic Woman"?
- No. His father's name is Stuart Anderson. -Nunh-huh 06:40, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hockey?
Seems like he tried a career in hockey prior to acting? Thought I recalled he was on a minor league team or something? JME66.72.215.225
He wanted to be a professional hockey player when growing up, but he broke both of his arms within 3 weeks of each other while playing high school hockey, and re-thought his professional ambitions. He still kept playing though and has also been the honorary captain of the US Olympic hockey team (in 1988 and in 1992). See also http://rdanderson.com. -TvL

[edit] Air Force award?
He was presented with an award at the Air Force Association's 57th Annual Air Force Anniversary Dinner in Washington, D.C. on 14 September 2004 because of his role as star and executive producer of Stargate SG-1, a series which has portrayed the Air Force in a positive light since it first premiered. It was presented by the then-Air Force Chief-of-Staff, General John P. Jumper. The last recipient of the award was James Stewart in 1987. At the same dinner, Anderson was made an honorary Brigadier General. So what award is this referring to? I couldn't find a mention of it in the James Stewart article to include the actual name of the award in this one. --user.lain 07:39, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Also, shouldn't RDA now be referred to as "Brigadier General (Hon.) Richard Dean Anderson" at the beginning of the article?
