Fails WP:SOLDIER (Master gunnery sergeant with no significant decorations) and lacks SIGCOV in multiple RS to satisfy WP:GNG. The first Puerto Rican/Hispanic to do/acheive something is not notable otherwise any member of any ethnicity who does almost anything is notable. Mztourist (talk) 03:45, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep - Being the first Puerto Rican/Hispanic to do/acheive something may not be notable to some, it is for us Puerto Ricans. Tony the Marine (talk) 04:09, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Sources don't demonstrate that WP:BIO is met here, and the claim to notability ("the first Hispanic to reach the rank of Master Gunnery Sergeant in his Military Occupational Specialty, 0451 air delivery specialist") seems rather narrow. Nick-D (talk) 04:40, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge into Hispanics_in_the_United_States_Marine_Corps where the tenuous achievement will appear in context. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:53, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Hispanics_in_the_United_States_Marine_Corps - I agree with Andrew that the article & section indicated would be the proper place to cover this individual rather than as an separate article. However, I don't think there is anything actually needed to merge at this point, as the information present here is already included in the target article.

 * Delete Does not meet requirement for WP:BIO.Looper5920 (talk) 18:30, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete even with the redirect option, it's not much for notability. Oaktree b (talk) 21:00, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete or possibly merge as identified above. Intothatdarkness 02:53, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete not seeing that WP:SIGCOV is met from any of the sources in the article. A WP:BEFORE didn't yield any significant sources (only mentions). TJMSmith (talk) 14:54, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete I do not believe a redirect is merited either as there are hundreds of Occupational Specialties in the Marine Corps, so being the first in situation is incredibly narrowly construed. Best, GPL93 (talk) 17:49, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. First person of a particular ethnicity to reach a particular rank in a particular speciality? Oh please! -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:20, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per Nick D. Cavalryman (talk) 13:35, 25 February 2021 (UTC).
 * Delete or redirect, doesn't seems to meet BIO and the 'first' is rather specific. oppose a merger as undue, though no opposition to a redirect. Eddie891 Talk Work 15:36, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
