Anyone know Percy Hobart's rank at the time he was given command of the 79th? I'm guessing at Major General. DJ Clayworth 14:28, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

Looks correct. Attained Maj Gen in 1937. Only later rank is as Lance-Corporal in Home Guard (doubt that counts!) Ref: Churchill's Generals Folks at 137 06:36, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:79th armoured division badge.jpg

Image:79th armoured division badge.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 04:17, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
