ATTENTION: A good portion of this text was lifted from the U.S. Postal Service website (in the public domian). I felt that Ms. Higgins needed to be in Wikipedia, but didn't have the time to re-write a new article. Please feel free to edit this to original content. WikiDon 20:32, 17 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I checked out the link to her husband. It is to s.o. who is NOT barried at Arlington.

Something is screwed up. I don't know that is real or right.

It appears that the William E. Hall wiki article referenced is to a US Navy officer who won the Medal of Honor. As Higgins's husband is referenced as a US Air Force General, it would appear that they are two seperate people. I have taken out the link.--TGC55 (talk) 00:29, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In her entry, it states her husband was a Major general, USAF, but he was a Lt. General according to his own page and his grave marker. 38.100.26.202 (talk) 13:46, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

biblography

[edit]

Why is there no biblography? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.137.177.20 (talk) 14:05, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sources for the article can be found at Marguerite_Higgins#Notes and in the references section just below that. SpencerT♦C 21:54, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cause of death - where contracted?

[edit]

In the Death section it is mentioned that "while on assignment" Higgins contracted a tropical disease. Where was she on assignment when this occurred? It would improve the article to include the location. --TGC55 (talk) 10:01, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

War in Korea

[edit]

I noticed there is no mention of her book:

"War in Korea (1951, Garden City, New York) The report of a woman combat correspondent"
