- Infobox:
- We don't need to have references in the infobox, as the facts are covered in the article
- The medals are not linked to the articles, so most readers won't know what they are. Use text links like in the MilHist articles. Leave the astronaut wings out

- "at the then Cape Kennedy Air Force Station" Could be more specific and link to Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Launch Complex 34?
- Per WP:EUPHEMISM, change "perished" to "died"
- Early life:
- Link Greenville, Michigan.

- I've added a bit, and goone over it one more time. Passing now. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:21, 26 November 2016 (UTC)
- One important change: I could find no evidence that Chaffee was a test pilot (ie graduated from Patuxent), so I have removed it from the bio. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:38, 26 November 2016 (UTC)
