[edit]

How could he have lived in Rhode Island his "whole life" and have worked as a lawyer in DC? Did he work in a Rhode Island office of a Washington based firm?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.167.100.82 (talk) 13:57, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Because Sen. Reed Makes Much of His Airborne/Ranger Training, It Seems Quite Legitimate to Point Out That He Spent the Vietnam War in College

[edit]

Senator Reed never fails to mention West Point and his Airborne/Ranger training. However, Sen. Reed did his military service safely in college at West Point and in graduate school. Only when the Vietnam War was over did he even serve in a non-classroom military capacity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.44.147.246 (talk) 16:26, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Military question

[edit]

He served 20 years active and reserve -- does anyone know if he retired from the Army? I can't imagine that he didn't, but want to be sure. 155.213.224.59 (talk) 13:57, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

– I just came across this page, and Talk:Jack_Reed_(Rhode_Island_politician)#Requested_move_12_June_2017, and I'm shocked by it. "Incomplete disambiguation" was the reason given for putting two pages on the same level that shouldn't be. Jack Reed of Rhode Island is a U.S. Senator. Jack Reed of Mississippi never held any elected office. As one of the two editors who commented on the June 2017 RM noted, this Jack Reed is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the name "Jack Reed". – Muboshgu (talk) 05:04, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hazardous, squalid housing of American military families

[edit]

An anonymous editor user:74.102.230.90 keeps inserting a negative claim against Reed that with regards to the hazardous, squalid housing of American military families Sen. Reed "faced scrutiny from Reuters investigative journalists after his relationship to John Picerne was revealed. Picerne is the CEO of real estate development company Corvias, which is accused by members of the Senate Armed Services Committee with ignoring the warning signs of lead poisoning, mold, and vermin infestations in the privatized military housing that it built and managed". He provides a link to a series of articles by Reuters with regards to this housing problem but nowhere within any of the articles contained in the link his claim against Reed is vindicated. On the contrary, nowehere Reed is criticized or personally linked to Picerne, and he is even quoted as being appaled by the problem. Please provide an actual valid source for this claim or stop inserting it. -- fdewaele, 28 August 2019, 14:52 CET.
