Talk:Bernard Schriever

General Schriever
According to Neil Sheehan's A Fiery Peace, the nickname should be Bennie, and not Bernie as is shown in the Wikipedia article. "Bernie" never surfaces anywhere I can locate in the book or in other Internet references. General Schriever apparently got the Bennie sobriquet as a golfer in Texas from local sportswriters.

 * I agree. General Schriever was my wife's grandfather. Her mother is Dodie Schriever Moeller. His family and friends always refered to him as Bennie not Bernie.

Propose move to Bernard Schriever
Bernard Schriever is commonly used name, with middle name rarely used outside of his official Air Force biography and obituaries. Should be a quick move per WP:COMMONNAME. Here’s an example:. I can provide more if needed, but I don’t expect this to be contentious. Garuda28 (talk) 23:29, 22 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Support Per WP:COMMONNAME. The move should include adjusting links, including the GA assessment.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  23:35, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
