message: "In 2005, the regiment ranked seventh among armoured milita regiments." in what? Seniority, quality or something like cookie eating?

replies: text: Good work, Mike. Keep it up! You should add a "references" section at the bottom of the article with the publishing info on Gallant Hussars.  See Wikipedia:Cite sources/example style for the format to use. Indefatigable 17:30, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Why are only some of the battle honours listed here? I noticed the same problem in other Canadian regimental articles as well. Is it possibly only the emblazoned battle honours are being added to the articles? I think that all the honours should be used, not just some of them.68.146.198.203 21:19, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Is the UK spelling "Mechanised" correct for the time period?
The article does have some British spellings mixed in; no US fortunately.

message: Just using this to hold some text from the [Sherman Firefly] article that I want to work into the Normandy section
*"Norrey-en-Bessin
One example of this increased firepower was displayed by Lt. G. K. Henry's Firefly during the defence of Norrey-en-Bessin on 9 June against an attack by the 3rd Company of the 12th SS Panzer Regiment of the 12th SS Panzer Division. Determined to capture the village in preparation for a larger offensive to drive the British and Canadians back into the sea, Kurt Meyer ordered 12 Panthers of the 3rd Company and infantry to attack Norrey and drive out the Canadians. The attack got under way at 1300 hours, with the Panthers racing towards the town at full speed, stopping only to fire their guns. They quickly outran their infantry support, which was forced to ground by Allied artillery fire. Within 1,000 m (1,100 yd) of the village, nine standard Shermans of the Canadian 6th Canadian Armoured Regiment opened fire into the advancing Panthers' flanks. Lt. Henry's gunner, Trooper A. Chapman, waited until the Panthers "lined up like ducks in a row" and quickly knocked out five Panthers with just six rounds. The attack was repulsed with the loss of seven of the 12 Panthers."*
