A link to his papers at the Bundarchiv would be nice, I cannot do it as I do not speak German. Geo8rge (talk) 21:32, 13 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

I added a direct link to the Military Section of the Bundesarchiv (German-language only, no English-language Wikipedia page on it either) and sent an email to them asking for a direct link the Bryan Mark Rigg Collection.Historian932 (talk) 14:13, 6 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Reasons for deletion

edit

I lately found out that the page probably should be deleted through BLPPROD, this page does not contain a single reliable source that backs the claims made here.

edit

The website woodywilliams.com about the book Flamethrower: Iwo Jima Medal of Honor Recipient and U.S. Marine Woody Williams and His Controversial Award, Japan's Holocaust and the Pacific War is no longer available... http://www.woodywilliams.com

Suggestion for Disclaimer or public notice

edit

Consider adding a disclaimer that any/all claims made by Rigg about his, or indeed any other person's, military service ought to be considered as purely for entertainment purposes, satire, etc. As they are not independently verified, or verifiable, and have no relationship with actual fact - to the point of being variously libelous and (in some states/municipalities) subject to "Stolen Valor" legislation. 2603:7000:1803:57F1:BDD6:5D8A:61FB:2AEC (talk) 05:24, 15 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Rigg at Yale, Fall of 1991

edit

This page claims that Rigg was introduced to the subject of his research—namely Jews Who Were Nazis—in 1994 during time abroad, after watching Agnieszka Holland’s film “Europa, Europa”. But anyone who met Rigg at the start of freshman year at Yale in August/September 1991 will recall being told at great and tedious length about his genealogical research into Jews who fought for Hitler. I would offer as witnesses to the fact that Rigg arrived at Yale with his research subject already decided in 1991 the following: Kyle Ackerman, Robert De Los Reyes, Peter Morris, John Blayton Hill, Peter Wilsnack, David Arens, Sarah Raff, Danielle Spencer, Jessica Ruvinsky, Jeanette Baez, Nicole Ruth Rice, Will Janensch, Lorin Stein. Although the page’s claim that Rigg only “discovered” his research topic in 1994 after a chat with a twinkly-eyed magical half-Jewish retired Nazi is apparently sourced, it is sourced to a quote from Rigg himself where he is clearly lying. The question, then, in altering the page is why Rigg should lie about such a thing in the first place. But I suggest that the witnesses above be contacted since all can attest to Bryan Mark Rigg’s announcement in August-September 1991 that he was at Yale to study Jewish Nazis, Nazi Jews, or both if necessary.

add to the list of Yale people who will confirm that Bryan Mark Rigg had his book thesis prepared in fall of 1991 when he entered Yale, and did not “discover” it in 1994, John L. Turner Yale ‘95 who recruited Rigg for handling Suzanne Jovin. yours truly, Peter Salovey 66.74.129.186 (talk) 08:03, 17 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
