Freeman served four years in the air force. His military service is worth three sentences in the article. As he is not known for his military service, then why does he have an infobox about his military service? That looks at least like giving it undue weight.

MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE: to summarize (and not supplant) key facts that appear in the article. ... The less information it contains, the more effectively it serves that purpose, allowing readers to identify key facts at a glance.NebY (talk) 20:52, 28 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
