I have made some edits based on what I remember reading in The Last Englishman several years ago. It is still a bit vague because I stuck to what I could remember accurately. Man with two legs 16:53, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
I have also added the name as A.D. Wintle because that is how people are likely to search for him Man with two legs 16:44, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
It's nice to see the article much expanded. I think there is an error though:
As I remember it, he did not fire his revolver with the bureaucrat, but threatened him with it and then let the cartridges spill out to show it had been loaded. In the TV program about him, he did fire it, but I believe that was artistic licence. -- Man with two legs 12:31, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
I have modified the WW2 section slightly. I've added references to "The Last Englishman" in that particular section. As I've just acquired the book from the Harvard library, I'm currently capable of adding page references to the other sections of the article, if that would be appropriate.
