Col Tunnel Letter?
[edit]No mention of the published 2010 critical letter by Colonel Harry Tunnel IV? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.208.130.95 (talk) 20:46, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
- I am not sure what the letter said by Tunnel himself seems to have been a controversial person. Dormskirk (talk) 23:45, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
- I've added a criticism section which references both the Tunnell letter and the more recent criticism of Carter by Daniel P. Bolger from Nover 2014. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.50.25.180 (talk) 19:55, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
Singer and Musician?
[edit]Wonder if the editor here thinks Backstreet Boys got some military commissions for being a weapon of mass distraction for the Crown? :D Anyway, there's no referecen to musical career in the article? --194.197.79.18 (talk) 10:56, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
- Are you sure you're not confusing him with Nick Carter (musician)? HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 13:20, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
- That was what I was wondering, since some editor had listed singer, musician and actor for this one's careers besides military.--194.197.79.18 (talk) 13:56, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, I believe that was removed. They were most likely confusing him with the singer as well. I'll add a hatnote to the top pointing people towards the disambiguation page. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:40, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

how about listing his awards/decorations
[edit]how about a char listing his awards or decorations?Cantab1985 (talk) 13:29, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- How about not? They're discussed in the text and listed in the infobox already. A chart - no doubt "illustrated" with images of ribbons - would just be repeating the information for the third time and adding mere bunting for the sake of it. Keri (talk) 13:46, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
