Wow, very interesting article, Ezlev. The Chapin chapter is nice reading. Hook checks out and is interesting to a broad audience; new enough, long enough, no copyvio, within policy. Reliably sourced throughout, though I wonder if it would be helpful to more directly say in the body that Liberated Barracks was directly associated with the New Left, rather than saying that it emerged during the time that underground presses were operational. It's also useful to say some more information about the map; the importance of it was that it depicted military installations. A fun, though probably not acceptable and not super related, hook could have been
... "that Hawaii is the most heavily militarized group of Islands in the world?",

a direct quote from Man :). But my suggestions are optional. Just waiting on a QPQ! Urve (talk) 02:53, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- QPQ added, Urve! I'll make some tweaks to the article based on your suggestions – and Militarization of Hawaii is going on my list of redlinks for sure. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 18:38, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Good to hear, re militarization of Hawaii. You have a way of writing that is captivating, and you always choose good topics. Urve (talk) 06:47, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
