Welcome to the first Bugle edition of 2018!
Our bumper articles section highlights content promoted to featured or A-class status last month; December's total of 18 A-class articles was easily the highest monthly tally for 2017, and one of the highest of all time. Special congratulations to Hawkeye7, whose British hydrogen bomb programme article, which he developed from scratch, is his 100th to achieve A-class status! Hawkeye figures heavily in other regular sections: the book reviews section features a pair of his reviews, covering a recent anthology concerning Operation Market Garden in 1944, and a book on the Australian military's efforts to protect its personnel from tropical disease; he also contributes this month's op-ed on US Army doctrine prior to and during World War I. Meanwhile, TomStar81 brings us his regular timeline concerning events of World War I one hundred years ago this month.
The MilHist FA, A-class, GA and Peer Reviews for October–December 2017 have been tallied. AustralianRupert and Nikkimaria headed the list, closely followed by Peacemaker67. You can find the names of everyone who contributed reviews here, and we thank them all for their efforts.
The 2017 Military Historian and Newcomer of the Year vote has also just concluded. In the 2017 Military Historian of the Year (MHOTY) contest, congratulations go to: Auntieruth55 and Peacemaker67, joint recipients of the Golden Wiki; Kges1901 who took the Silver Wiki; and Parsecboy and TomStar81, who both took the Bronze Wiki. Congratulations also to HerodotusTheFraud, who took the Golden Wiki in the 2017 Military History Newcomer of the Year (MHNOTY). All other nominees have been awarded the Wikichevrons for their contributions to the project over the past year.
