Error description

Real name is incorrect. Cash's real first name is just the initials J.R. - the John was only added for convenience when he went into the army. See https://books.google.ca/books?id=vO15ig_GBI0C&pg=PA31&redir_esc=y#v=snippet&q=j.r.%20name&f=false (page 6)

Yes, you're right about that. However, I believe you can say that over the years Cash kinda adopted the John R. name. As shown in the attached picture, it's also how it's spelled on his gravestone....
