George Cleveland Duncan

Article constantly being edited to indicate person is a phony. The bio should pass WP:BIO if true, but there are no references. A search of the USMC database does not bring up a bio. Tassedethe (talk) 13:25, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Certainly would be notable if true (which I have my doubts), but no sources provided. A search of worldcat.org turns up none of the "many books" he's written. The USMC bio link (above, in the nom) does not include a bio on Duncan. The former claim (now removed) that he was one of 92 winners of the 1988 Nobel Peace Prize seems dubious at best. The 1988 award went to "United Nations Peacekeeping Forces" but the press release and presentation speech at the Nobel site do not mention Duncan (or anyone else, for that matter) by name. — Bellhalla (talk) 19:15, 22 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Search of the POW link (in the main body) does not have a record of this Duncan.
