Auntieruth55: Since your article is more complete, merging to this article is okay with me (mine was first though). The old introduction has been added to this one. Also, since I have a copy of Phipps in front of me, some things under the Military career section were rewritten or added. I left the other citations alone of course. The Kellermann link has been corrected. Next, I will point the links from the old article to this one. Djmaschek (talk) 04:40, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
