FAA men to stand-alone list?

[edit]

I'm thinking of moving the list of MFAA men to a stand-alone list. A quick look at Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Embedded_lists didn't seem to indicate one way or another what's appropriate, but I believe it would make this page cleaner and easier to read.

Is it possible that there are good reasons for keeping the list and the article together? --Enkyo2 (talk) 00:14, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, there are good reasons for leaving it as is, too. I'm curious to see what the other page watchers might say. Kschlot1 (talk) 12:55, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Same image twice?

[edit]

Why is the same image used twice? Surely there are other images available?? Gaff ταλκ 23:42, 5 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Orphan content

[edit]

The following uncited/OR content was relocated here from the T-Force page on Allied World War II G-2 identification and seizure of scientific and industrial technology and personnel. I cannot find an appropriate page dedicated to financial looting during World War II, only this one overwhelmingly dominated on art.

One of the T Force teams was led by Lieutenant Commander Joel H. Fisher of the United States Coast Guard. Fisher reported to Colonel Bernard Bernstein, deputy chief of SHAEF's Financial Division. His 75 member team, called "Task Force Fisher", was to locate, secure and control financial materials and loot that the Nazis had stolen, confiscated or otherwise accumulated, and to prevent either its destruction or removal from the country. Advancing with combat troops, Task Force Fisher was involved in combat and experienced enemy fire on several occasions. During the last few months of the war, the Task Force Fisher traveled 1,900 miles throughout Germany, and located 6.65 tons of gold and 198,000 pounds of silver.

If someone knows where it belongs please be kind to this well-intended and informative orphan and integrate it there. Thank you. Wikiuser100 (talk) 22:28, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Contradictory information

[edit]

It says in the article that Soviets discovered items of from the https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dresden_Transport_Museum However the museum page states that it never existed until 1952, which is 7 years after the war. Something is awry here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.148.5.121 (talk) 18:07, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Mine? Missing information (Bernterode)

[edit]

Just noting we seem to be missing a reference here:

Bernterode, Germany: Americans found four coffins containing the remains of Germany’s greatest leaders, including those of Frederick the Great (Frederick II of Prussia) and field marshal Paul Von Hindenburg. Also found in the mine were 271 paintings [...]

NB the "Bernterode" link just links to a municipality; no mention of a mine there. thundt (talk) 17:08, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
