My name is Bruce M. Petty, author of Saipan: Oral Histories of the Pacific War. You have me down as David Petty. Please correct.

Confirmed and done. I might add though, that as this is a wiki, next time something like this comes up, feel free to just go ahead and correct it yourself. That's kinda the idea. A note on the talk page might not be noticed for some time, as in this case where it took over a month. -Graptor

[edit] NPOV Issue

The Guy Gabaldon content was added with a POV-pushing link. I've independently verified some of the information, restored NPOV, and removed the rest. Jehochman (^Talk/_Contrib) 19:03, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

• I made some edits to the Gabaldon information (recent efforts) based on the references. — ERcheck (talk) 14:24, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I understand why it was reverted, its English needs serious cleaning up, I put it here so it is not forgotten. --Stor stark7 ^Talk 17:56, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
