All of this is a repeat of Battle of Normandy events. The only exception is the very small paragraph about John's parachute getting caught in the steeple of the village church and him pretending to be dead for 2 hours. I think this can be merged with the main Battle of Normandy article. Manufracture 18:41, 30 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

You can't merge an article on one man into an article on a battle involving 500,000 people. This article can be edited, but if Steele isn't notable enough for his own article, I don't think he needs to be mentioned in the Battle of Normandy article, either.Michael Dorosh 18:42, 30 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
I've done an edit on the article to remove extraneous info - Steele merits his own article but the info is not appropriate to the Battle of Normandy article. I've also added the film portrayal stuff.Michael Dorosh 18:48, 30 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
