Fixed an error[edit]

While doing a routine copy edit, I started to wonder why it was suggested that this man was "considered Irish" since he was born and died in Canada, and served with the Canadian armed forces. I checked into the links and found that there were two VC winners with the same last name but different first names, and the other man was Irish. I assumed that this error had somehow crept in for obvious reasons and removed it, and its associated links. Accounting4Taste 18:06, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
