Talk:Portuguese Army

message: hi... We're trying to get up a functional wikipedia page regarding the capture of the Portuguese colony of Goa by the Indians in 1961. So far we have had abundant information from indian military and history sources, but are faced with a paucity of information when it comes to portraying the Portuguese side of the conflict. we would appreciate any inputs you can offer in this regard for The Liberation of Goa
Do forgive me for calling it the 'Liberation of Goa'. I imagine that it would be called differently by the portuguese, and we would want to reflect that too in the page. 
Thank you.

message: What is the reason for the merge.  I think that this article should stand alone, and am strongly opposed to a merger.  I think it is of sufficient length to warrent its own article.  Granted, the history on this particular page is pretty skimpy, but I saw a seperate link for Portugese Military History, saw that is already covered.  I move the tag be removed.SAWGunner89 04:03, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Just for everyone to know, i changed the "Role" in the sidebar. The Portuguese Army is, indeed, a land force. But when I clicked there, the link redirected me to an article called "Canadian Land Forces Command". I thought it was absolutely riciculous to have something like that in an artcle of an army that is not related at all with the Canadian Army.

message: Hi, the operational structure diagram of the portuguese army present in this article is wrong. The portuguese army, in fact, is composed by 3 brigades and not by two. They are: the Brigada de Intervenção, the Brigada Mecanizada and the Brigada de Reacção Rápida.

replies: text: according to the Portuguese article :pt:Exército_Português the Brigada Mecanizada will disband. As the Army homepage has not been updated for years it is unclear if the Brigada Mecanizada still exists or has truly been disbanded. noclador (talk) 00:27, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

message: The rank insignia chart shows the army rank of marshal (NATO O-10) with the insignia of 4 gold stars, as opposed to the 4 silver stars for general. It is said to be a ceremonial rank that has not been awarded since Pres.Francisco da Costa Gomes in 1982. However, the current Chief of the Armed Forces Staff, Gen. José Nunes da Fonseca, wears 4 stars on his uniform that are distinctly gold. Has he been promoted or is this an insignia change? Venqax (talk) 14:30, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
