List of US General Officers in Three Wars

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not a reasonable topic for a stand-alone list; no sourcing that suggests this is complete. Data appears inaccurate as well (regarding Milton Reckord being in the Vietnam War), probably due to this being original research. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 04:44, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. This boils down to a list of people who were in the military from arbitrary date X to arbitrary date Y, so long as the U.S. was in three wars in that period. bd2412  T 16:54, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. Seems like a pretty arbitrary, made-up criterion, suitable for Triviapedia. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:48, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete This prime example of WP:OR violating WP:NOR policy. Now no independent reliable sources claim this X number of soldiers attended 3 war each. Just the author combine source A, source B and Source and come up with 3 wars and that's synthesis. Many other possibilities for OR exists if this is kept. By creating  List of US General Officers in Two Wars  in four wars and so on unabated. And the source will generally support all that since it's synthesis. –Ammarpad (talk) 14:50, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
