Talk:Royal Air Force March Past

message: The section mentioning the lyrics states that they were written by Walford Davies. However, the second section (the coda) to which those are sung was by George Dyson. So is this correct, or has somebody made an assumption? Rob (talk) 09:28, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Davies wrote the original score and lyrics. The second part (trio) was scored by Dyson (see http://www.impulse-music.co.uk/pages/DysonWorks2007.pdf). Dyson had nothing to do with the lyrics from what I can tell.  BC  talk to me 19:19, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

message: I'm removing the sentence and the reference of the RCAF March Past being referred to as simply the "Air Force March Past".  I don't have access to the magazine article in the reference but I have actual Canadian air force "history and heritage" handbooks as well as Canadian Forces publications covering the period from before 78 right up until the renaming of Air Command back to the RCAF and none, not one reference anything other than the title "RCAF March Past" as being the official march of the air element of the Canadian Forces.  For example:  - On Windswept Heights - Historical Highlights of Canada's Air Force (published by DND in 2009) pg 57 says "RCAF March Past"- Canadian Forces Pipe Band Manual - "RCAF March Past"- Customs and Traditions of the Canadian Canadian Armed Forces (1980) pg 156 mentions RCAF March Past as official march of Air Command- A-AD-200-000/AG-000 Heritage Structure of the Canadian Forces Chap 7 Annex A "Authorized Marches" lists RCAF March Past as official march of Air CommandSo with all due respect to the Air Force magazine article, the march past has always been, and and continues to be, called the RCAF March Past - CU L8R AV8R ...

replies: text: I have that magazine article, and indeed that is what it says. I've found that articles in various editions of the magazine have inaccurate content, and this could be an example. I suspect also that the name change may have been used by the AFAC to reflect changes in air force structure/naming (up until this year), but was never formalized by the actual air force.-- BC  talk to me 15:43, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
