 * Symbol confirmed.svg Long enough. Sources verified against offline books. Hook okay, but would have expected one about his unusual court martial like: "... that when All-American basketball player Elliott Loughlin was court martialed in 1945, the court received a more serious penalty than he did?"
 * We had debated putting something about his court-martial in there, but I thought it would be too derogatory for a DYK hook. If you think it's ok, however, I would prefer the hook you mentioned. Jrcla2 (talk) 20:44, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I also prefer the reviewer's proposed hook. JMOprof (talk) 00:59, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
