Talk:The Short-Timers

Fair use rationale for Image:GustavHasford TheShortTimers.jpg
Image:GustavHasford TheShortTimers.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:24, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Out of print. Why?
Can't understand why a book like this is out of print. It would sell, majorly. I would buy it. There are only "collectors" instances which are hundreds of dollars/pounds, out there (Amazon, currently £90-220 & that's a paperback). Don't understand how the mechanism works. Examining closely a picture of the book, the publisher is Bantam, which still exists. 31.50.186.163 (talk) 11:24, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

Gerheim death
I removed a detail that failed verification with my copy of the ebook. In there, Gerheim grins a "werewolf grin", says "Private Pyle, I'm proud--", is shot by Pyle at that point, and says no more. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 05:09, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
