I'll fix point 1 in a couple days. As for point 2, I'm not sure which academy, since unfortunately I don't have the sources on me at this time, and won't for another couple months. Wizardman 15:03, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Rewrote the lead. Wizardman 15:13, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Can the academy be a military academy? Ruslik_Zero 07:55, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Based on my research, it's possible but unlikely, since he didn't seem like the military type. I imagine academy = private school, so I'll reword. Wizardman 20:38, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Passed. Ruslik_Zero 09:14, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
