Talk:Raymond Bailey

Question on Merchant Marine service
What's the best way to characterize what Raymond Bailey did in World War II? Did he "serve in the Merchant Marine" or "work as a merchant seaman"?

User:Davidmt62 and I have been discussing the best way to characterize what Raymond Bailey did during World War II. Specifically, is it correct to say that someone "served in the Merchant Marine?"

I have written a sentence to that effect in the article, and added two references:


 * In 1938, he decided to try Hollywood again. His luck changed for the better when he actually began getting some bit parts in movies, but after the United States entered World War II he joined the United States Merchant Marine.

What symptoms of Alzheimer's disease was shown on Beverly Hillbillies and what time segments of which episodes?
The page for Raymond Bailey states that he began displaying symptoms of Alzheimer's disease in the final episodes of the Beverly Hillbillies, but no specific examples are given. Neither in any article online making similar claims. I just watched the final 3 episodes of the series and didn't notice anything besides a bit of slurring in a few scenes, which may or may not have been a part of his character's hyper mood. In the very final episode that wasn't happening. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.193.254.87 (talk) 04:54, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
