replies: text:  I think people got the point - the addition of the "reference" tags does nothing positive to this article, and is merely a distraction at this point.  You can remove them ... or I can. -t BMW c- 15:11, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It stays on there till it get fixed. Thats why you have tags in the first place!!!!!(Archangel1 (talk) 15:29, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  The tag at the top can stay, your blanking of the page said volumes.  Remove the tags throughout the article, all will be well.  In the time that took, you could have added some references. :-) -t BMW c- 15:58, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

text:  I have to agree - I'm not a military expert by any means.  I've added a few for Cdn  after minimal research.  Those who watch and regularly edit this page should have no issues if they work together. -t BMW c- 19:39, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Deleted Article 

message: I deleted the units under the United States Marine Corps, and placed it by what is more appropriate.
MARSOC doesn't conduct pathfinding operations because they are nowhere near any missions that would provide the Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF), Landing Force (LF), or Amphibious Task Force (ATF) commander in helicopter landings during their ship-to-shore movement.  They support the USSOCOM, they aren't a Fleet Marine Force unit.
ANGLICO do not pathfind either, they provide combat flight control instead, to guide helicopters via radio.
Paramarines?  Please, impossible for them to conduct pathfinding because helicopters weren't effectively used for troop carriers until 10 years, during the last phases of the Korean War and thereafter.  Paramarines were disbanded before the end of the war in 1944.
And Radio Recon do not pathfind because they are the supplemented electronic warfare support for Radio Battalions and augment reconnaissance, not pathfinding, if other primary Marine recon assets are unavailable.  Only Force Recon and Division Recon were the primary sources for pathfinding.  And it has long been replaced by Remote Sensor Operations, and is usually performed by Force Recon.<BR>RekonDog (talk) 11:08, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

message: People need to understand that the 101st Airborne is still a form of Airborne. It is just no longer "paratroopers." Half of the units listed in this article are not paratroopers but Air Assault which is similar to gliderborne troops of the Second World War.Fury 1991 (talk) 17:44, 16 March 2017 (UTC)

message: I suggest removing all of the unit badges. They just seem to be decorative, and are distracting. (Hohum @) 01:41, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unit badges 

message: I have removed this unit from the list following an examination of both the references provided. The first reference said little more than the unit was part of the Australian Special Operations Command, and the second reference's only mention of the unit was that the Parachute Training School had SOER sappers on it's staff. That does not adequately support the contention that the whole unit could be inserted by parachute. Cheers Buckshot06 (talk) 16:20, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

message: Why the reference links for the France section have been indicated as "dead links"? They work just fine for me. --Arturolorioli (talk) 18:57, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: They work for me too. Your last edit seemed to add the dead link tags by the way. (Hohum @) 19:01, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Dead Links? 

message: I've finished a large revision of the page, complete with extensive references (as requested by user:Buckshot06 - see ). I think that now "the issue has been adequately addressed" as per Help:Maintenance_template_removal#When_to_remove (point 1), and the refimprove template could probably be removed. Any opinion? --Arturolorioli (talk) 22:32, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: As no objections have been raised, and the page is now adequately referenced, I've removed the refimprove template. All the best. --Arturolorioli (talk) 11:13, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
