Contradiction template[edit]

The article starts out with "Lori J. Robinson is a United States Air Force Brigadier General who was the Commander of the 552nd Air Control Wing, Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma. As commander, General Robinson is[contradiction] responsible for ... " In the second sentence, "commander" has no explanation other than the first sentence, so it means the same position. But in the first sentence she WAS the Commander, and in the second sentence, as commander she IS responsible. Was or is? The timeline at the end of the article says she was no longer the commander of the 552nd as of August 2008, and the reference also says "... was Commander, 552nd ...". Perhaps I should just change the second sentence to "was", but in that case shouldn't there be more emphasis on what she is now? Art LaPella (talk) 01:42, 20 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2014-10 Commander, PACAF[edit]

Now commander of Pacific Air Forces, http://www.af.mil/News/ArticleDisplay/tabid/223/Article/518657/robinson-takes-command-of-pacaf.aspx — MrDolomite • Talk 21:13, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

AFN Commercials[edit]

Didn't she also do commercials on AFN for blood donations when she was a colonel? 155.213.224.59 (talk) 16:56, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia contributors FTW![edit]

Pretty impressive to see that her Wikipedia entry was updated with assignment #28 (May 2016 - present, Commander, USNORTHCOM; Commander, NORAD) as quickly as the news broke which apparently was May 13^[1]. Her official bio page still hasn't been updated!

Bronze Stars[edit]

What did Lori get the Bronze Stars for? They don't have the Combat "V" so I assume they were for bureaucratic work (yes, you can get Bronze Stars for administering paperwork, sad but true). 50.202.81.2 (talk) 05:19, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
