Respectfully submit this article about an operation during the Guadalcanal campaign for A-class review. I welcome your comments or suggestions. Cla68 (talk) 23:50, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. Well done. Carom (talk) 01:54, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support another outstanding article. I might be complaining about too much of a good thing, but the 'background' section seems over-long, and I'd suggest that this be trimmed back to the immediate background to Carson's patrol rather than the current potted history of the entire campaign - this material best belongs in the Guadalcanal campaign article. On the other hand, the background should provide a description of the Marine Raiders unique organisation and tactics as these seem to have been important during this battle. --Nick Dowling (talk) 03:13, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I've just added a para describing the battalion. I hope that it's OK. --Nick Dowling (talk) 04:02, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you for doing that and I'm going to try to cut down the background section. Cla68 (talk) 06:25, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Support. Kyriakos (talk) 07:48, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support One of the better articles that I've read on a seemingly minor battle. I'd also like to commend the excellent usage of numerous maps throughout the article. Cam (complaints) 23:58, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
