Talk:Edwin Bramall

message: Is there any reason why the page doesn't use his 'Sir' prefix? According to Wikipedia's Order of the Bath page 'Knights Grand Cross and Knights Commander prefix "Sir," and Dames Grand Cross and Dames Commander prefix "Dame," to their forenames.' Unless there's something about his being a baron life peer that changes it.

replies: text: Yes. He is a Baron which is a higher grade so he drops the "Sir". Dormskirk (talk) 17:24, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  'Sir' Prefix? 

message: Wasn't he the last serving officer to have served in WW2? I'm sure it was on the news when he retired. The Soviets also had some elderly generals who were WW2 vets until the late 1980s.
Also, wasn't Bramall (aet 22) a very young major by the end of WW2?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 171.192.0.10 (talk) 14:31, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Yes, but surely the investigation, subsequent raid, and apology should be mentioned. Remember it is an incontrovertible *fact* that these things occurred. It would be libellous to say the accusations are true; however, simply to mention facts is most definitely not. Fmc47 (talk) 07:53, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

message: The article is named Edwin Bramall. Is that appropriate, as he was a life peer and not your average civilian, as the current name implies. Editrite! (talk) 21:21, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
