Picture[edit]

The one here [1] looks blatantly like an official military photo, and would thus be public domain.

Also, should the article just be at "John Fugh"? The middle initial doesn't seem to be necessary for disambiguation. cab 05:46, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For the image, I think we'd need someone who can read Chinese to be able to confirm that the site is military, but I'm also not sure if the same free use laws apply to Chinese military images, as they do with the U.S. military, so we'd need to ask about that, I think. As for the name, you are right, it could be moved to John Fugh. Since it was submitted to AFC as John L. Fugh, that's the way it was created. I'll move it.

Hi, I think we've got our wires crossed. That is clearly not a Chinese military image; given the army uniform and flag background, extremely likely it's a US Army photo and would be in the public domain as a work of the United States federal government. That website I got it from is just some forum/news aggregator portal; I'm 100% sure they're not the original owner of that image. I emailed them to ask where they got it, (I speak Chinese) but that'll probably be futile. Similar images (different sizes/croppings) has been reproduced on other Chinese websites as well; you can see them by pasting his Chinese name into Google Image search. (None of them bother to provide an attribution for the image either). Cheers, cab 09:39, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry if I wasn't clear, I don't mean to imply Fugh was in the Chinese military. However, the image is on a Chinese site, and unless it can be found on the U.S. Army site to verify its origin, (thus verifying that it is in the public domain), it would be an assumption that it came from the U.S. Government, and in public domain, and I don't think that would be enough. It may be that Fugh posed for the picture in his uniform, but it wasn't taken by the Army, in which case the image wouldn't be in the public domain. Hopefully they will reply, and give you the original URL of the source of the image, which is all that would be needed. I realize that photos like this float around a lot, but I think that care should be taken to ensure the image is really from the U.S., and in the public domain. I'll do some digging as well to see if I can come up with an image that is from the Army. Sorry for any confusion! Ariel♥Gold 09:46, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, that is the same picture that's in the reference provided in the article, http://www.cctv.com/program/UpClose/20050309/101761.shtml so it is highly likely this is an official image. I'm trying to dig up the source now. Ariel♥Gold 09:49, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What about the Lyman brothers?[edit]

I was working on bios for the Lyman family of Hawaii. I ran across this: Army Press Release which has some other supporting evidence, that Albert Lyman (for which the Hilo Airport was once named) and Charles Reed Bishop Lyman were generals in World War II (albeit posthumously for Albert). One grandfather was Chinese, one Native Hawaiian, and two others American missionaries. So the questions is, does "Chinese American" need to be 100%, which Fugh evidently is, or does 25% qualify?
