There's a picture of Neil Ritchie which can be uploaded to the commons here. See here for an example of how. Oberiko 15:41, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary sentence?

[edit]

Ritchie had the bad luck to hold his highest command during the earliest phases of the war, when British fortunes were at their lowest ebb. The Eighth Army, in North Africa, were the only British land force engaging the Germans anywhere in the world.

Do we really need the second sentence? How does it add information, or, for that matter, even support the statement in the first statement? Bazuz (talk) 19:00, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

our usage of the Mead source

[edit]

Rewriting article to differentiate between where our editorial voice is claiming objective fact, and where we let Mead speak. CapnZapp (talk) 14:19, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Photo caption

[edit]

The second picture has, as its caption, 'a group of officers....', with four names being mentioned, there are five people shown.
