It's an official, Air Force website, so it's probably true. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mthibode (talk • contribs) 04:28, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

Sworn Deposition and not Disposition
[edit]This is the author of English-speaking Witnesses to Katyn - you can reach me at [email protected]
On May 10, 1945, at SHAEF Headquarters in Paris, in the presence of a JAG attorney assigned to the War Crimes Unit, John H. Van Vliet, Jr. was deposed under oath - i.e. a sworn deposition. A disposition is something completely differenct.
If you have any questions please fee free to contact me - otherwise, please reread the news article you reference. Thank yo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.58.200.195 (talk) 22:26, 29 July 2017 (UTC)
Year or birth 1893 or 1896?
[edit]Bissell's grave at Arlington Nat'l Cemetery claims "1893" whereas all the usual AF.mil sources going back to the 1953 AFHRA Historical Study 91[1] claim "1896." I've added this to the list of things to research when I return to AFHRA in Sep-Oct 2022 where hopefully I can settle this matter :-) Rob Rosenberger (talk) 03:10, 10 November 2021 (UTC)

Issues with "Post WWII" section
[edit]I'm at AFHRA studying the master HAF SO books 1946-1953. I've added some refs -- except I can't find an SO to support Bissell's assignment in May 1946, nor can I find an SO to support his Oct 1948 assignment, nor can I find an SO for Bissell's Apr 1950 assignment. The 17 Oct 50 SO-204 reassigns him from HAF to a hospital, but where did he come from?
My guess right now is that he got assigned in other months. It'll take a while to scour the master SOs to find each one. Right now, though, we can correlate SO-100 & SO-139 & SO-204 to hypothesize he didn't return from Europe before taking his whirlwind vacation. I'll keep y'all updated as my research continues.
