I'll get to this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:26, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
- No DABs, external links OK
- He was on probation to become a commissioned officer at the time he was killed in the Second Battle of Bapaume during which he performed the actions that led to the posthumous award of the VC. Kind of long sentence. Perhaps break it in half or something.
- born in Wellington, New Zealand comma after Zealand
- Redlink SS Maori. Also do you know what kind of a ship it was? Seems rather odd that a ship would need a night watchman.
- during the Gallipoli Campaign but comma after campaign
- that year but remained and another after year
- During operations around the village of La Basseville, he was noted for his service. Awfully vague. Do you have any more detailed info on his actions there. Was he mentioned in dispatches for this?
- gain front line experience hyphenate "front line"
- At the time, the VC, instituted in 1856, was the highest award for valour This phrasing implies that there is now a higher award.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:29, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
- Almost forgot, image appropriately licensed.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:30, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
