Comment: He may be notable as an author. However there are some fixes needed first:1.Proper references to his book. I suggest using the WP citation tool, then remove the <ref> tag before & after. We need the list to have publisher, ISBN etc2.Reviews in independent, credible sources of his books. The obituary is not enough. Ldm1954 (talk) 14:07, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Bradley F. Smith was an American historian and professor.[1][2][3] Smith was born in Seattle, but did not do very well at his education and wound up flunking out of formal education.[2] He joined the United States Air Force, where he worked for four years.[2] After his four-year contract, he studied at and graduated from University of California at Berkeley, earning a degree in history. In 1958, he was a Fulbright Scholar who studied in Germany.[4] He taught for thirty-two years at Cabrillo College, from 1960 to 1992.[1] His books on American intelligence and the military, and World War II were "ground-breaking" and award-winning.[1] He was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in the 1990s.[1]
