Talk:Battle of Athens (disambiguation)

Some more information.
For anyone with the time and interest, here is a large amount of information from various newspapers, telegraphs, and even personal interviews. http://www.constitution.org/mil/tn/batathen_press.htm

I'm sure that if someone asked, he would probably give permission to have much of this information in the wikipedia article.


 * Legally speaking, he doesn't need permission. Information, as such, is not copyrightable.  What is copyrightable is a particular presentation of information; thus, his permission would be needed if one wanted to copy something verbatim.  However, the facts of the occurrence are not copyrightable and so if someone wants to write up an article based on what he learned in that link, no permission would be needed.

Battle of Athens (the real Athens)
Just a few jottings for a potential future write up of another battle of Athens in 1941, as a prelude to the Battle of Crete.

People who took part: Marmaduke Pattle, Roald Dahl

Battle honours: The King's Regiment (Liverpool)

Thinking of moving the USA 'battle' to a separate page and including a disambig. The US battle seems slightly pheripheral to other world events.


 * I have added a disambiguation page. I may try to request this page gets moved and the disambiguation page get put here in it's place if that is agreeable to everyone. The main reason I did this is that there were two "Battle of Athens" during the American Civil War. --Rballou 00:41, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
