This wiki page for Chuck is wack! Need more stuff.--Ron John (talk) 11:17, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Chuck deserves better. The American people deserve better! Hope this gets improved soon, I think I'm too busy to do anything on it at present. Kaleeyed (talk) 17:50, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

So glad Chuck has a page. However, the picture on the page is not an ES-335. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.93.73.131 (talk) 22:04, 16 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Picture explanation: "Brown with his signature blonde Gibson ES-335" Correction: That's not an ES-335, that's an ES-175!

Mentioned here. The report makes it confusing as to whether it's really in Northeast or Northwest; I entered the park's name in Google Maps, and it gave me what I assume is the architectural firm which designed the park rather than the park itself. Of real interest was the reporter's statement that Brown died of sepsis. I suppose that's close enough to what's mentioned in the article, but is it really?

There's no way to ask this without sounding racist, but please bear with me...

Was his father African-American or white? The reason that I ask is that according to most sources (The Marine Times, for one https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/news/your-military/2017/08/26/first-black-marines-mark-75th-anniversary-of-the-segregated-boot-camp/), the U. S. Marine Corps was segregated until 1942. Therefore, if his father was African-American then he wasn't a Marine at the time of Chuck's birth, but could have become one six years later. I just think that the wording is strange, and if anyone has any amplifying information please provide it here and/or make a correction to the article, or I can if armed with the facts.

Thank you for bearing with me! FiggazWithAttitude (talk) 15:36, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
