"He was born in London" - "Davies was born in London""After leaving school, he emigrated to New Zealand, and after " - "after" twice.successive "First World War" not linked."was elected in February 1897 as a member " - "in February 1897 was elected a member""Harbour Board representing" - "Harbour Board, representing""On 3 October 1899 he" - "On 3 October 1899 Davies""but was shortly thereafter seconded to" - ". Shortly thereafter, he was seconded to..."- Generally, too much use of "He" and not enough of "Davies"; it's nice to break it up.
"returned home to command the Auckland Military District, but returned to South Africa " - "returned" twice, capitalise the succeeding "colonel" and link brevet for those unaware of military terminology.
- Ranks consistified - all now lowercase unless used as part of a name.
"mentioned in despatches" - linked twice.- You might want to mention his lectures; "Universal military training to protect New Zealand", written as part of the Public Sub-Committee for Universal Military Training, for example. Ironholds (talk) 19:16, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
