Relation to Gary O'Shaughnessy?

edit

Does anybody know if the current General O is related to this previous General O? https://www.af.mil/About-Us/Biographies/Display/Article/106003/major-general-gary-w-oshaughnessy/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.147.174.143 (talk) 20:10, 13 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Position at SpaceX

edit

The article currently claims "Since 2021, O'Shaughnessy is a Chief Operating Officer at SpaceX.", but that's the title of Gwynne Shotwell. The sentence has two references: WSJ just states that SpaceX hired him and says "It isn’t clear whether he is a consultant or an employee." govconwire.com/ calls him "retired USAF general and president and chief operating officer at SpaceX", but I find absolutely no other source claiming anything similar (besides 1:1 text copies of that list on other websites). Clearly we would have some other references for a new president and COO? They might have misread this Facebook post where the two are next to each other: "Ms. Gwynne Shotwell (left), SpaceX President & COO, General Terrence J. O'Shaughnessy (Center), Commander of NORAD and U.S. Northern Command". Suggestion: Just write "hired by SpaceX" with the WSJ reference. --mfb (talk) 09:26, 24 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

It's not uncommon to have multiple COO, especially for a separate division under security clearance. 2600:1012:B012:4029:AD53:5642:BB64:6707 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 04:37, 26 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

That would have been mentioned elsewhere. I implemented my suggestion now. --mfb (talk) 07:35, 10 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
