These were Ibids that didn't look to actually reference the immediately preceding ref. I've changed it to the most likely, but these need verification:
 * "Most affected were the Lille-Fives metalworks factories (targeted eight times between 1941 and 1944)," (diff)
 * "In the first year of the war, the "Dames," female volunteers trained in healthcare, managed the train station cafeteria reserved for soldiers on leave, while also helping with various other day-to-day tasks (notable examples include Marie-Rose Dalmar and Elisabeth Biarez." (diff)
 * "In general, there was a shortage of healthcare workers and medicine, and a surplus of victims and patients." (diff)

Others:

Was the street named for him, mentioned in the paragraph on 1940Battle of Lille get its name before or after the war?Cloptonson (talk) 21:02, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
