To write an article about a George Cross recipient, use the syntax in the box below. Copy and paste the text into the article and populate the fields with the appropriate information. This will produce an article looking something like Bennett Southwell. {{Infobox Military Person |name= |image= |caption= |born= |died= |placeofbirth= |placeofdeath= |nickname= |allegiance= |branch= |serviceyears= |rank= |unit= |commands= |battles= |awards=[[Image:George Cross UK ribbon.png|30px]] [[George Cross]] |relations= |laterwork= }} MAIN TEXT OF ARTICLE FROM HERE '''Firstname Surname''' (born - died) was [[Posthumous recognition|posthumous]]ly awarded the [[George Cross]], the highest [[United Kingdom|British]] (and [[Commonwealth of Nations|Commonwealth]]) award for bravery out of combat. including Gazette reference: <ref name=LG1>{{LondonGazette |issue= |date= |linkeddate= |startpage= |endpage= |notarchive= |supp= |accessdate=2007-11-21 }}</ref> and reference to George Cross database: <ref name=GCDB>{{cite web |url=http://www.gc-database.co.uk/recipients/Name.htm |title=First name surname, GC |publisher=George Cross database |accessdate=2007-11-18}}</ref> ==References== {{Reflist}} ==See also== [[List of George Cross recipients]] {{UK-mil-bio-stub}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Surname, forenames}} [[Category:British George Cross recipients]] [[Category:British military personnel of World War II]] [[Category:1911 births]] [[Category:1980 deaths]] Further information about the Military Person infobox reference syntax can be found here. The infobox is suitable (in the absence of a better one) for civilian recipients of the GC, most of whom (eg Fire Service or ARP personnel, or even railway workers) can be adequately described using it. Further information about the London Gazette reference syntax can be found here. The categories for birth and death date will obviously need amending to the correct dates. Other categories may need amending or adding: for example to [[Category:Australian George Cross recipients]].
