Contested deletion[edit]

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because...This article is a standard bio of BG Stephen Vincent Benet, based on an official version as used by the U.S. Army. The source of the article is in the public domain and is referenced at the bottom of the page, book by Sterling. Also, the online bio is also in the public domain as it is part of the U.S. Government, and is based on the aforementioned book. This citation is given at the bottom along with the note that all information is coming from the public domain, hence there is no issue of copyright infringement. --Ordnancehistory (talk) 17:57, 28 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article name Incorrect: missing accent in subject's surname: "Benét"[edit]

I propose, unless there are reasoned objections, to rename (move) the article so that it correctly includes the missing accent on the sencond "e" in subject's surname "Benét". Note: the subject's last name is properly accented in the separate article on the eponymously named US Army "Benét Laboratories", and the reference therefrom had a jarring inconsistency in referencing a "Brigadier General Stephen Vincent Benet" (now corrected).
