Others?

What about Sgt. Carter's steady girlfriend, played by Barbara Stuart, and the Privates played by Larry Hovis (first season only) and William Christopher ("Pvt. Hummel"), and "recurring" characters like Sid Melton's "Friendly Freddie"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.1.68.96 (talk) 16:50, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Can we list/picture Col. Gray's ribbons too?

Since we're doing it for Sgt. Carter, it would make perfect sense to list/picture Col. Gray's ribbons as well (who among others has a Silver Star). I guess Sgt. Carter's nemesis, Sgt. Hacker should be given the same treatment? I would do it myself but I don't know how to do the pictures of the ribbons right.75.81.197.59 (talk) 03:19, 16 July 2011 (UTC:

Only in military-mad America would anyone seriously try to identify the ribbons, worn by an actor, pretending to be a fictitious soldier, in a silly TV show. Why not ascertain the model, serial number and manufacturer of every firearm that appears as well ? Who was is it said ‘A nation of adolescents’ ?

Sgt. Carter -- 1928 and 1948

There is "He was born on May 4, 1928".

Then there is a reference to "1948, when he would have been about 18." Try about 20. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.20 (talk) 20:45, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
