- Weak keep fails
WP:SOLDIER, did not receive the second highest award for gallantry (Navy Cross) multiple times, but may possibly meet the GNG "significant coverage" requirement due to media.

- I wasn't aware of WP:SOLDIER, so I've added it to the rationale, but I think that WP:1E addresses the "significant coverage", since all of that coverage was only due to one event, and neither his role in the event nor the event itself is significant enough to merit an entire article for him. -- Irn ( talk) 13:24, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

- Delete and optionally redirect name to Operation Red Wings where the subject is mentioned. I note than another member of the 4-person team does not have an article; it has been deleted at AfD: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Danny Dietz, so a delete here would be consistent with prior outcomes and with WP:SOLDIER. One of the other two members was awarded the nation's highest decoration for valour, Medal of Honor (SOLDIER#1), while the other survived and wrote a book, which was turned into a movie. Not the case here. K.e.coffman ( talk) 18:56, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete and redirect name to the operation article. WP:Memorial applies. Kierzek ( talk) 20:59, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
