Hi Onegreatjoke (talk); an excellent article from a user I am familiar with through WP:MILHIST. Article promoted to GA on 10 December; sources used are reliable and are cited inline throughout; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and cited, AGF on offline citation; I didn't find any issue with overly close paraphrasing from a check on the few online sources - Dumelow (talk) 13:09, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
