Errors with "Today In Military History" calendar

[Blakey]

Hope this is the right place for this  :-[  but ive been scrolling through the history calendar and Ive found an error with it. It is in reguards to the entry for Jan 25th 1952 which reads:
1952: Vincent Massey appointed first Governor-General of Canada

This is wrong on two counts.

1 He wasnt appointed GG on that day, it was Feb 1st 1952

2 He wasnt the first GG he was the 18th (Since confederation), although he was in fact the first GG to be born in Canada, which is why it is such a historic event. Because all other subsequint GG's had to be Cdn Citizens.

Any comment about the original post would be most satisfying.

As the provider of the original data set for the calendar, I have checked my notes and it appears to have been the result of an erroneous original source. I've since deleted the item from my own database as I focussed on military items, and cannot offer further detail than that.

NP, I just happen upon it because I was making quite a few entries myself

Thanks, I've also updated the calendar here.

P.S. Thanks for the many new entries Blakey. I hope to enter them all in tonight or tomorrow.
