Hi Hawkeye7, review follows: article moved to mainspace 3 September and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing from the sources I checked; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; a QPQ has been carried out; no immediate source for the image is provided, but it looks to be a US government photograph and therefore free of copyright restrictions. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 19:24, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
