Link Innsbruck, tank destroyer in the lede. Generally link on first appearance of a term.

This article should be written in American English, so mobilized, not mobilised, etc.

Done. -ise(d) and armour(ed) fixed; can't spot anything similar.

Need more details on how it was organized, both as a towed AT battalion and with the M18 Hellcats. You've given a rough manpower count early, which is good, but how companies did it have, and how many guns/Hellcats per company? Rough data should be in Zaloga.
- Lede still refers to them with towed 3-inch guns.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:14, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done now, I think, for all three organisations. I couldn't find an explicit statement that they used the 1943 SP TO&E when converting back to M18s, but it seems a safe inference; the reconnaissance company definitely reappeared and Gabel doesn't mention any other organisational structure.

Rewrite this as it's too wordy: a group of eight men returned to retrieve them the following night, successfully recovering the guns.

Don't capitalize surrender in Surrender of Japan

Names of medal recipients unnecessary unless individually notable.

Done I vacillated about this initially but included them mostly out of curiosity. Happy to remove them... Andrew Gray (talk) 19:58, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fix the typo in Gimlette.
