Someone should put something in about his book.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.79.78.65 (talkcontribs) 21:09, 24 July 2006.

If you know about it, go ahead and add it.--Nobunaga24 04:26, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image used

It appears to be a uniform very different from standard U.S. Army. My guess is SAS, from the year when Beckwith was seconded to the SAS in the early 1960s. Can someone confirm? Alcarillo 22:54, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

  • There should be other photos available, hopefully a military portrait or other photo of Beckwith in an official capacity (and hence free to use here). Alcarillo 05:37, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] name is too common to hold charles_beckwith url location on the site

I was about to create an entry for fashion photographer Charles Beckwith. The name Charles Beckwith is fairly common. There is even another Col. Charles Beckwith who was in Vietnam. I recommend changing this entry to Charles_Alvin_Beckwith to make it easier to search for the others. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lex0nyc (talkcontribs) 16:20, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good, just make sure to disambiguate properly, and follow up on incoming links and redirects. Thanks! -- mordel (talk) 16:54, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
