Talk:Yves Le Prieur

Hotchkiss sale to Japan
According to [] and [], before WWI Yves Le Prieur used to work as an attaché to the French embassy in Tokyo. In the 1930s, Japan acquired licenses to manufacture the Hotchkiss 13.2 and 25 mm anti-aircraft guns, that had carriages and predictor sights designed by Le Prieur. Was he personally involved in the Hotchkiss Japan deal? PpPachy 15:57, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Requested move
From WP:RM:

*Yves le Prieur → Yves Le Prieur -- In his autobiography as well as his patents, he spelled it as Le Prieur with a capital L, which is typical for Breton names like his.

 * The request was mine, sorry about the lack of signature. Is anything else needed? I am not familiar with the procedure. PpPachy (talk) 07:19, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
