If Wikipedia documented the death of every soldier killed in action in every war there would be hundreds of thousands of articles that would pose no real significance to the encyclopedia. While the sacrifices by soldiers should not be forgotten they do not all need an article on Wikipedia. This soldier does not meet the notability requirements and for this reason I am nominating this article for deletion. --Joebengo 18:30, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete I greatly appreciate his heroism and sacrifice, and sympathize with his family, but the article is a memorial, and Wikipedia is not a memorial site. Edison 18:53, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. As per WP:MEMORIAL.--Edtropolis 19:04, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete, of course.--Svetovid 20:03, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. As a vet myself, I have unlimited respect to those that have fallen in defense of my country. That does not change the fact that the article fails to stand up to policies outlined under WP:N and WP:NOT. Trusilver 01:05, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
