So why is the article still here? SqueakBox 03:58, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not the same article that was voted on. Check edits- it has been seriously expanded. I'm removing the speedy because I think the information is valuable. -- JJay 04:06, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - it says "During the next 18 days Shand led patrols to Hazebrouck and St Omer to gather intelligence of enemy dispositions. By skilful and daring manoeuvre, he covered the withdrawal of a column of new lorries and guns under fire from four German tanks, and was awarded an immediate MC."
