Date?[edit]

Is the starting date correct? The Encyclopedia of the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars (Gregory Fremont-Barnes, editor) claims it was 15 June - 9 July 1810. historyofwar.org says 5 June - 10 July 1810. This one tells us "Ciudad Rodrigo fell to the French on 10 July 1810, after being under siege of 72 days." Some other sites claim it was after 24 days. --Ukas (talk) 08:42, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
