Early life?

This article begins with its subject's graduation from the Air Force Academy. Surely, he did not spring forth fully formed, like Athena. Surely also, his birthdate and place, parents' names, siblings, etc., are known (he's a living American, not some medieval actor). Why aren't these included? --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 18:49, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Living people on the 21st century are reluctant to put personal information online. If you have a source, I will include it. Hawkeye7 (talk) 20:28, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
