Expression. The following sentences use the word "returned" repeatedly and could be better expressed.

At the end of his year's service in 1915 Gleeson returned to Dublin and became a curate but returned to the army in 1917 and remained for a further two years. After the war he returned to Ireland, becoming a priest at churches near to Dublin and being elected canon of the Metropolitan Chapter of the Archdiocese of Dublin before his death on 26 June 1959.

I will be reviewing this article in the near future, most on Monday, but I will be mindful of the nominator's comment that they are only able to address concerns on weekends. Canadian Paul 20:57, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
