Use RVC or R.V.C. He was not known as Ronald. Seriously, do a search on his books or google. RVC is how he is known. Like TE Lawrence. Not Theodore.
Well his books all use that name for him as well.
In my search for information on this man I found this, apparently there is a portrait of Thomas Gage in the "Colonol R.V.C. Bodley collection in Boston". [6] I can't find any further mention of this 'collection' anywhere. Freikorp ( talk) 03:16, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
Could this be a DYK? Honest, I feel like Freikorp and CM and others did some nice work here. (Of course, I really don't know what a DYK is either.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.127.134.132 ( talk) 21:32, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
Some good commentary on his units on the Flickr site (kind of OR, but seems to be drawn from unit histories). http://www.flickr.com/photos/32300107@N06/8935054938/in/photolist-eByuxm-damAJt-damAzn-8SxQqo-eDNq55-bQMePK-7Skjzs-8SuJrM-8SuLFk-8SxSCW
Also, London Gazette is referenced as having a good 1919 article on the man. I guess, you could dig up more looking in old newspaper archives (some maybe not on the web or Googleable). Also, he has been dead only 40 years or so, so one would imagine there's surviving family and the like who knew the man. That said, not the most important thing in the world to research this fellow.

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:R. V. C. Bodley restoration.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on February 19, 2015. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2015-02-19. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. Thanks! — Crisco 1492 ( talk) 19:20, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
