German 211 Inf. Div.

[edit]

My sources do not state with authority that this divisions served in Belgium. Can anyone help? Dapi89 (talk) 10:07, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

2nd Chasseurs Ardennais

[edit]

The above is listed twice in the order of battle, first with Belgium forces then with the French. Is this the same unit or two seperate units?--EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 09:36, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It was the first, not second that remained with the Belgian Army. Dapi89 (talk) 13:25, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Division vs. Regiment

[edit]

I'm just wondering if the Belgian "divisions" listed are actually regiments. Units like the 2nd Chasseurs Ard. are certainly regiments, and I believe it unlikely that the others are too... --Brigade Piron (talk) 10:57, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

list vs prose

[edit]

I removed a tag requesting it be converted to prose on teh grounds that the order of battle is a list of units so a list format is reasonable. On the other hand, adding some prose above each section to give context sounds like a good idea. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RJFJR (talkcontribs) 12:12, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@RJFJR: That's fine, but if you're going to revert someone, please use the undo feature (or Twinkle) so they get notified (I only left this watchlisted accidentally). You also left an extraneous blank line at the top, so I reverted fully. Anyway, this was probably my own fault for not having clicked through to order of battle, not realizing that this is a technical term. I obviously then don't have the expertise to do anything else with this article. If any prose is needed, probably just a bit in the lead would be enough to establish a little more context for clueless types like me, if even that. I'll un-watchlist and leave this to people who know the subject better. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:12, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
