[edit] Assessment

Hey, I just assessed the article. I could give it B class as it is the highest in my power. However, I certainly think you should nominate this article for GAC and later A class review. Good luck. Kyriakos 22:23, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Contact with writer

I'd very much like to talk privately to whoever was kind enough to provide such a wonderful history of the Ledbury. My father, Eric Woodland, was her radio operator from commissioning of the ship until the end of the war. I suspect there weren't many men who were with her throughout.

My father told a story as he was dying about an incident he said happened in, I believe, Greece. My father rarely talked of the war and certainly never romanced about it or boasted of what he did. And yet it generally and something specifically troubled him deeply. It could have been the story that he told in his last hours or that could have been the rambling of a sick man. If anybody would be willing to help, I'd deeply appreciate the chance to talk. You can contact me, please, on my own "talk" page. My many thanks. 77.194.246.214 (talk) 15:00, 11 December 2007 (UTC)les woodland http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Les_woodland
