Talk:Luc-Julien-Joseph Casabianca

Ensign?
Made a correction, based on spellling. I do not believe that "ensign" is a rank in the French Naval Service, and it was spelled wrong as well. Unless I am much mistaken M. Casabianca was promoted from an enlisted rank to an aspirant (midshipman) and to LT of vessel, and so on.... Please correct me if I am mistaken... 14:16, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Oops
So he went from aspirant to Enseigne de vaisseau and then Lt. de vaisseau... so I'll fix my own mistake. The spelling was still wrong.. Cheers V. Joe 14:20, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Early life?
This article's body text begins with its subject's naval career. There is nothing about his parents, birthplace, upbringing, or schooling. There is more about the (mostly fictional) poem about his son than his real family. Surely somebody as important as this is not a complete mystery (and if he is, the article should say so). --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 19:07, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
