World War II service[edit]

Although Avery served in the United States Army during the World War II era, no reliable sources found as of yet state that he served overseas in a war zone during the war. Accordingly, Category:American military personnel of World War II was removed from the article.

Also, although Category:United States Army soldiers was added to the article, it is possible that he actually served in the United States Army Air Forces. If that's the case, Category:United States Army Air Forces soldiers would be the more appropriate category. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 15:12, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There's an article in the sports section of the Lincoln Sunday Journal and Star from August 27, 1944 that says Private Don Avery, who played college ball at Alabama, was a tackle on the Second Army Air Force football team. This is a ref that he was a soldier in the Army Air Forces. Accordingly, this will be added to the article. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 18:43, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
