The hook does not strike me as particularly interesting (or referenced). I'll see if I can come up with something better. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:02, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
How about, ... that during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, Israel's Galilee Squadron was menaced by Syrian trainer aircraft (example pictured)? The Bushranger (talk)
I like it, and I've also bolstered the relevant paragraph and added an additional online ref. Poliocretes (talk) 06:55, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
Alt1: that, lacking bomber aircraft, Israel's Galilee Squadron resorted to dropping bombs by hand during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War? Clarityfiend (talk) 23:53, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
I prefer Bushranger's, but your's just as good. Poliocretes (talk) 05:06, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
I'm really not crazy about the other hooks; they're less about what the squadron did or was than about one of its enemies. Still, since you two like them, I'll withdraw my objection. Clarityfiend (talk) 05:46, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
