Talk:Weary Dunlop

message: The last revision - I'd really like to see a reputable source for this, otherwise I'll revert it.  It looks like gossip to me.  All surgeons encounter situations like the one described. Sills bend 01:06, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

message: This article has a lot of praising and charged phrases. "a man of such enormous energy"; "He was active in many spheres of endeavour."; "A courageous leader and compassionate doctor,"; "Dunlop defied his captors, gave hope to the sick and eased the anguish of the dying."

message: Why are Weary Dunlop's War Diaries  not referenced?  That is surely the primary source for the years 1942-1945.  Dugong.is.good.tucker (talk) 15:41, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

message: Surely the omission of "Knight Bachelor" (1969) in this section is a major oversight - as this is the only honour he received which entitled him to the honorific, "Sir". The knighthood of the Order of St John of Jerusalem (KStJ) does not, in Britain or Australia entitle the holder to be called "Sir", and nor, in those same countries, does the Thai knighthood. I have inserted that honour. Also, the OBE (awarded 1947) does not stand for "Order of the British Empire", but for "Officer of the Order of the British Empire". One is not awarded the Order of the British Empire, but a grade within that order. I have corrected that. Finally, his 2nd highest award in the British (and at that time, Australian) system, was Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) in 1965. I have added that.

replies: text: Agree.  Citations now provided.  Actually, one is not even "awarded" a grade of an order, but "appointed" to it.  --  Jack of Oz [your turn] 22:58, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
