Hi Aephyx, I see that you've recently had a failed GA nomination with 932d Airlift Wing. Although I agree with the reviewer that it is not quite ready for GA status at this time, I thought I'd drop by and give you a few suggestions, if you don't mind. First, looking at the WP:GA#History page, in the War and military section, under Armies and military units, there are quite a few good articles listed on individual brigades, divisions, regiments, etc. Looking at these may give you some ideas on where to go with your article to make it of GA status. Many of the articles in that section on the US were written by User:Ed!, and he may be a good resource to give you some pointers. As a third thought, I don't know whether you've joined the Military History WikiProject yet (see WP:MILHIST), but this is a great group of editors who are interested in all sorts of military topics. I hope my comments are helpful, and please let me know if you have any questions. Dana boomer ( talk) 13:11, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
