 * "... Corps Mortier, ..."
 * Does "Mortier" need to be italicized? "Corps Mortier" seems a proper noun, and the MOS does not seem to recommend such typesetting...  Although the half italicized name is used later in the main text (Dispositions and the header French Corps Mortier), it is also fully italicized at one point (another part of Dispositions), making the naming inconsistent.
 * I think it does, according to MOS. first, it is a foreign word, so it should be italicized, second, it is consistent within the article.
 * Not quite. Per Manual of Style (text formatting): "A proper name is usually not italicized when it is used, but it may be italicized when the name itself is being referred to (see Words as words)." "Corps Mortier" is a proper name, as such none of its two words need to be italicized.  I brought up the consistency issue because previously, it was called "Corps Mortier" two times, and "Corps Mortier" once.  Regardless, in light of the MOS, all mentions should not be italicized.

 * I've taken out the italics, but I still think it is incorrect. Auntieruth55 (talk) 17:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Somehow, this cannot be capped... so using strikethrough to show it has been resolved. Jappalang (talk) 01:58, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
