Aylmer Firebrace
[edit]- ... that British firefighter Aylmer Firebrace was awarded the Bronze Medal by the Royal Humane Society in 1918, and the King's Police Medal in 1938?

Hook facts are footnoted, but hook source is behind a paywall, hence AGF. Hook short enough. Article new enough and long enough. Refs in proper format. No neutrality or BLP concerns. Random googling of various sentences indicated no concerns related to copyright violations or plagiarism in the article. No violations detected by earwig@toolserver:copyvios. Good to go. --PFHLai (talk) 22:43, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
- ... that the appropriately named Aylmer Firebrace become the only man ever to lead the entire British fire service as head of the National Fire Service? Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 14:42, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
Is there a ref for "appropriately named"? Otherwise, this new hook may be good, too. --PFHLai (talk) 08:33, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
- How about: ... that Aylmer Firebrace was the only man ever to lead the entire fire service in Britain as head of the National Fire Service? --PFHLai (talk) 23:43, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
I'm re-adding the tick so that the promoter knows that the original hook was approved. SL93 (talk) 15:38, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
