Talk:Operation Husky order of battle

message: *Just a point of information: Headquarters 7th Army did not exist before July 10, 1943. Prior to January 9, 1943, Patton's headquarters was still code named Headquarters, Western Task Force', which was restored to the official Headquarters, 1st Armored Corps on the January date.
*As of the July date, 1st Armored Corps was redesignated as headquarters, 7th Army. This change took place while the troops were in the middle of their trip between North Africa and Sicily.

message: I'm not sure we should use that Osprey book (part of the men at arms series) as a source in that article, particularly for the Coastal Divisions. Sometime last year I tried to sort this out and found great differences between the theoretical organisation of these units given in some sources and the actual organisation on the terrain. From that information I could not piece together the attachments of most of these regiments. The current listing in the article looks good, but is likely to be incorrect, while I like the Osprey books on other time periods I've never found them useful for WWII. Though I haven't read this particular one (I probably have a copy somewhere and will take a look if you think I should).--Caranorn (talk) 11:50, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi. I take your point, and reading the citation (I don't have the book, only the link) it is clear that there were a lot of broken up units assigned here there and everywhere. However, a very long list of miscellaneous units is very unsatisfactory and making a personal judgement on the info in the Osprey books amounts to original research. I have found mistakes in other books of the series and have been able to ignore them because I have other references - simple things like referring to a numbered division which didn't exist but on making further enquiries one discovers a brigade of the same number which was involved. Basic errors like this do not give one huge confidence in the reference but in this case I have not been able to find a detailed Axis OOB elsewhere to use. So I guess this is the best we have until something else crops up. Stephen Kirrage talk - contribs 12:06, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, though I think I might have a regional breakdown (where they were located) of these regiments somewhere, though it might not be complete (and therefore also useless). I will look that up when I get a moment.--Caranorn (talk) 12:28, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

message: There are inconsistency in the article: 1th is not the truth. It may be 1st or it may be 4th, 5th ... It is possible that the number is wrong or the “th” is wrong. I do not know what of that is wrong or true. Please check it. --Diwas (talk) 12:22, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
