Overall: The article was expanded from 310 to more than 5,000 characters from July 27 to August 1, and nominated on July 28. Length of the main prose is adequate, but the introduction is rather short and makes no mention of the major awards he received. I question whether listing the names of other chaplains is necessary in the introduction. Sourcing is adequate in the prose, but the section "Awards and decorations" is unsourced. The article is neutral in tone, and no plagiarism was detected. I have struck both ALT0 and ALT1 since both laud the merits of the school and not the subject of the biography. Readers would be more likely to read about the school than Hessian. The remaining hook ALT2 is interesting, mentioned and cited in the article, and verified by the source. The image of Hessian is in the public domain, used in the article, clear at a low resolution and enhances the hook. QPQ is not required. Overall, the article is in better shape than before expanded, and a welcome contribution to Wikipedia. Flibirigit (talk) 01:28, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
