Henry Burrell (RAN officer)[edit]

Promoted --Eurocopter (talk) 19:16, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator(s): Ian Rose (talk)

Nominating for ACR because, as usual, believe it meets the criteria. Having pointed out at the Australian task force page that the ‘senior service’ was ironically the least well-served of the three branches of the ADF, biography-wise, it was about time I delivered my first contribution to helping change that situation with this Chief of the Naval Staff... Any and all comments welcome! Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 11:11, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support - no complaints or concerns on my part. This is a well written, illustrated and comprehensive piece. Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 07:14, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support This is a good article which meets the A class criteria. I have only a few minor comments:
- Blue Mountains is linked twice, and in the first mention its part of Sydney while in the second its a region of NSW - I'd suggest that the second geographical description be omitted
  - Agree it doesn't need both, left Blue Mountains out of intro and kept the additional detail in Early Life - plus I think Wentworth Falls is probably classed as a town not a suburb... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 11:30, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- It's a bit confusing to say that the FAA's fixed wing component 'remained a going concern until 1984' given that most units were disbanded in 1982 when Melbourne was decommissioned without replacement - 1984 was the year the last remnants of the FAA's fixed wing squadrons were dissolved after serving mainly in a fleet support/training role.

  - Quite right, generalised it now to fit with the facts without getting too deeply into it. Tks for that, Nick. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 11:30, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Looks good. – Joe N 13:23, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
