Capal and Chanel[edit]

I have removed the short request at the end of this section as obviously
inappropriate and should have been placed within the discussion forum.
I do so here:
"Date of birth missing... Does no one have a photograph of Boy?"

Kudos[edit]

This is how a brief biography should be written: factual and to the point. It is also proportionately sized to the subject (it could even have a bit more detail - but that would require more research).LeValley 04:42, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Citations?[edit]

Re the changes recently made (July 2010) insisting Capel married for money - is there evidence of this? Facts on his background and sources of income are hard to come by but the New York Times lists him as playing polo on the French Riviera in the winter season of 1911 (NYT, January 15, 1911). This suggest he was already well off before his marriage. RLamb (talk) 20:52, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Military Honours[edit]

He was buried with full military honours. But the biography does not mention any military service. Valetude (talk) 17:57, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
