Sourcing rationalisation
This source [1], albeit a primary, gives us all we need for the list from 1969, without the need for reliance on tertiary media sources. If it's considered as authoritative shouldn't we just make the whole list reference it, rather than trying to reference each line with a collection of different qualities?
It's a fairly simple statement of fact, and uncontentious, so should we just clean this up a bit?

Unnamed DSF
Supposedly there was a Royal Marine Officer who was appointed DSF in around 2015, after Carleton-Smith and before Chiswell, but no name is known.

- Hi - Not necessarily. Carleton-Smith continued as DSF into 2015 (see [2] page 57) and Chiswell came free from from 1st Armoured Division in April 2015 (see [3] page 181). It is unlikely that any intermediate person lasted only a few months. Best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 14:29, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
- I am in contact with this author. Guess we will have to trust him.Cantab1985 (talk) 14:33, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
- Also this article says the new DSF served in Sierra Leone: Chiswell certainly fits the description. He was probably selected in 2014 and took up his appointment in 2015. Best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 14:36, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
