Hughie Miller

... that, despite being sick and ordered to return to the rear, Hughie Miller (pictured) fought on the front lines in the Battle of Belleau Wood and single-handedly captured two German soldiers? [1]

Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/All My Life (1966 film)
Comment: His action at Belleau Wood was on June 6, 1918. How does that work for a special occasion hook?

5x expanded by Muboshgu (talk). Self-nominated at 16:53, 4 May 2021 (UTC).[reply]

This article was recently expanded, is long enough, and is well-referenced without any copyright violations. The hook is interesting, referenced, and is formatted well for the Main Page. The image is free and shows up well. QPQ has been done. I think this would be great to feature in the DYK section on June 6. I'll propose it's featured on that date at Wikipedia talk:Did you know. Nice work, ❯❯❯ Mccunicano ☕️ 02:51, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
