Talk:Troy H. Middleton

message: I'm beginning the process of expanding this article and have done this with some family background and references.  It would be great if others would like to expand his military career.  If not, I'll eventually get to it.Sarnold17 (talk) 22:45, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

message: Does anyone have any other photos of Middleton?  The current photo in the article makes him look like an alien of sorts.  I like using this photo in the article, because it was taken during the Battle of the Bulge, but his infobox could use something a little more flattering.Sarnold17 (talk) 22:55, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  File:Eisenhower.Dwight.preWWII.jpg Nominated for speedy Deletion 

message: This is a very informative and interesting article, someone has obviously put a lot of effort into it.  However, the article seems to stray from the subject of Troy Middleton the man to history of the events that surrounded him to a much greater extent than necessary, or desirable, for an encyclopedia article.  In some of the later sections, World War II in particular, the man seems to disappear for a paragraph at a time, or at least stray into someone else's biography for a sentence or two.  I would recommend a pretty thorough rewrite with the mind to remove as much of the material that isn't directly relevant to Middleton himself as possible. Atani (talk) 04:47, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, by the way, there's a nice quote from Hugh M. Cole's 'The Ardennes: The Battle of the Bulge', 50th Anniversary Edition, p.55 that someone might want to use as an intro quote: "General Middleton himself had a fine combat record reaching from World War I through Sicily, Normandy, and Brittany. Deliberate and calm but tenacious, he was regarded by Bradley and Patton as one of the best tacticians in the US Army."Atani (talk) 14:22, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

message: Just curious why this article has not been edited to reflect that the lsu BOS has voted unanimously to strip Middleton's name from the library?  Should this not be added to this article?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.63.166.66 (talk) 17:14, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

message: This article is ridiculous. I don't think we've had articles this detailed for US presidents, let alone segregationist LSU presidents...  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmkstrat (talk • contribs) 01:14, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
