  • New GA, neutrally voiced, properly cited, no copyvio detected; both hooks cited (the citation is not immediately after the facts rendered in the DYK, but close enoughș source verifies them); hooks are interesting. One image from the article could be used, such as the Army symbol. Dahn (talk) 14:53, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
  • QPQ now done. Probably shouldn't have been so hasty on this one honestly, but it's a small mistake. Roniiustalk to me 15:12, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
