Having read this article, there is an unusually great amount of bias in favor of the subject. The article is filled with flowery words and language not found on objective biographical pages. An example is the following line: "As a true-blooded Marine, he was dauntless in facing the enemy. But, more than a warrior, Marcelino displayed a rare flair for winning the hearts and minds of civilians and military alike."
