Navygirl82 (talk) 18:51, 12 November 2022 (UTC) Hi Cabrils, The youtube video I mentioned is actually from the Imperial War Museum (https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/1060027483), but I can't find a direct access still available through the museum. Also I have included the refence from the Gazette suplement (the offical paper for notifying awards and medals): https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/49134/supplement/12837. This video is also an Imperial war Museum production : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Lw8eWE7aQ8&t=974s and Steve's combat is mentioned by his boss at 18.27. It can be accessed through the museums site here: https://www.iwm.org.uk/history/falklands-conflict-in-the-air-episode-3. I have put these links into the page. Also another youtube video has the original BBC reference here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0077c0f but it is no longer available except through youtube. So, 3 reliable source? Imperial War Museum, The Gazette and the 2 books (although I only have a copy of Wards book) Appreciate your help with this.

 * Dear Mattdaviesfsic,
 * I have removed the unsources material (later life) and added references for the start and finish of his career. I plan on adding the additional comments as soon as I can find the appropriate references. I am surprised by your comment on the Falklands War section being "Untidy"?. I used a similar format to an existing article (of Thomas's boss and that was acceptable to Wikipedia), and dividing the text into shorter chronological ordered sections which had the important dates as a subtitle seems quite correct and TIDY, so I am at a miss as what to do to this other than remove the dates (even though this format was accepted elsewhere in Wikipedia. This article is about a underappreciated war hero who was awarded one of the United Kingdom's highest decorations for gallant and distinguished service but won't be published because of his achievements in chronological order with the dates of his exceptional military actions. I have removed the dates in order to "tidy" the article and I would therefore respectfully ask you to re review the article and consider it for publication and rectify this "Injustice" of recognising this person's achievements.
