 * Symbol question.svg Meets the DYK length and creation date requirements. A bit of a question with the wording of the hook though: while strictly true in a chronological sense, it seems to imply that Bayer gave up his citizenship because of his army service in Vietnam. The text and the US Senate reference just seem to say that he gave it up to claim Vanuatu citizenship and don't mention Vietnam. Could this be clarified or reworded? --Canley (talk) 06:09, 18 December 2013 (UTC)


 * ALT1 ... that Tom Bayer, formerly serving in the United States Army, gave up his U.S. citizenship to become a citizen of Vanuatu?  Tentinator   07:06, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg All good to go with ALT1 hook I think, the hook and fact are supported by the references. --Canley (talk) 08:38, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
