message: If Breen was born in November 1928 how was it possible for him to enlist in the army in the "early 1940s"? Either his date of birth is wrong or there must be serious questions about how he managed to enlist in the army at such a young age. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 01:12, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Hey, Derby. Since I'm the one who wrote that section, I double-checked the sources to see if it really said "early 1940s". I couldn't find anything so I removed that part of the sentence. Btw, he was born in 1927, so he was a vet towards the very end of the war at age 17/18. OscarL 20:27, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
