Apollo Program
[edit]I see that he's not listed as being a part of the Apollo program, but I have access to a document (the document is in my husband's possession) which lists Bassett as a participant. It is signed by Bassett, as well as 27 other astronauts, dated 17 March 1965; just thirteen months before his death. The document however does not state the nature of his participation, so should this be added to the article? Not the document of course, but the fact that he was an Apollo participant?

Reviewing later. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 03:08, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
- Any info on Bassett's parents?
- The part about Bassett leaving OSU for the Air Force should be mentioned in the early life section.
- "and did graduate work at USC in Los Angeles" When?
- All four aircraft need to be linked.
- "He went to Korea with the 8th Fighter Bomber Group and flew a F-86 Sabre." When?
- "Bassett went to Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, to attend Squadron Officer School." Don't think the comma after Alabama is needed here.
- "They died within 500 feet (150 m) of their spacecraft." Aircraft?
- When did Bassett marry and have kids?
- Ref #14's archive date needs to be in the same format as the others.
Just a few things. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 09:12, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
Re the words “'Bassett went to Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, to attend Squadron Officer School.' Don't think the comma after Alabama is needed here.", above: Parentheses opened must be closed. Such constructions as "Dallas, Texas is a big city" and "December 7, 1941 was an important day" are faulty. In each, the first comma opens a parenthesis: without another comma, there is no mark to show where the parenthesis ends. It's obvious if you use other punctuation to mark the parenthesis: you would never write "Dallas (Texas is a big city" and "December 7 (1941 was an important day", but you would write "Dallas (Texas) is a big city" and "December 7 (1941) was an important day".
