[edit] merger

Las memorias de Leahy does not contain part of the diaries but two versions of his memoirs on the Puerto Rican governorship which I found among his papers in Wisconsin a his son William H released to me. I am the editor of that book, Jorge Rodríguez Beruff. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.50.125.84 (talk) 05:07, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

I think I've moved over the important information. If someone wants to delete Admiral Leahy article, they're welcome to do so.

These historic facts remain relevant to mapping memes shared among future thought leaders of his generation!

After his wife's death, Leahy was a trusted advisor to both U.S. Presidentd F. D. Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman after FDR's death!

[edit] Copyvio

• Not sure of the reasoning behind this edit. The website listed in the {{copyvio}} was http://www.williamdleahy.com. This is actually just a redirect to http://web.mac.com/walkerlamond/iWeb/William%20D.%20Leahy/Home.html, which is a users page on mac.com There is no copyright information listed on that sub-site, could it be that WP information was copied TO there, rather than FROM there? After all, isn't that the point of WP? Let's get some discussion before hitting the panic button. — MrDolomite | Talk 08:06, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ambassador to France

Admiral Leahy was of the utmost importance in Franco-American relations and this section desperately needs expansion. His seduction (figurative) by Petain and Darlan poisoned Franco-American relations for generations. Leahy's views became Roosevelts... and it is mentioned in Churchill's Memoirs of the Second World War. V. Joe (talk) 02:30, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
