I'll get to this shortly--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:44, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Golla's German Fallschirmtruppe 1936-41 (Rev ed)- Its Genesis and Employment in the First Campaigns of the Wehrmacht Might be useful for a German perspective

That looks interesting. It would help with Battle of Heraklion too, which is currently languishing at ACR. It is expensive though, and my local libraries were useless even before Covid. I shall consider the e version.

Brown is only the author of the introduction. The Admiralty's Naval Staff is the actual author

Ah! Fixed.

No DABs
Images appropriately licensed. Suggest moving the air drop photo to the infobox

I will if you insist, but IMO that leaves the rest of the article looking a little bare, image wise.

I think that the infobox image is the most important one in the article. And surely you can find other photos from the AWM or the IWM photo collections?--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:11, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hyphenate well armed police

Done.

Link field gun

Done.

Why the quote marks around the hill names only on first use?

That's the usage I was taught and am used to seeing. I could remove the initial quote marks?

Not a usage that I'm familiar with but it's fine--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:11, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

They Allies had all but?

Oops. Fixed.
