This article is mainly reliant upon one stated source, the official U.S. military bio for Lucius D. Clay, Jr. I see at least 2 problems: 1.) the official U.S. military bios are slanted, in that they do not convey information that would reflect poorly on the military (compare the official bio of Frank Kelso, involved in the Tailhook scandal, vs. a better written wikipedia article on him using several other sources), and 2.) the article does not show which material is copied. Copied material should be in quotes (quotation marks or set in block quote formatting), to separate from wikipedia editor wording. Note the obit is not independent information. See [[WP:REF}]. Hence I mark this article with the "refimprove" and related tags. doncram (talk) 03:12, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
