Per other recent AFDs, such as those for Henry Blomberg and Daniel Martin, soldiers who have received nothing more than a Distinguished Service Cross, while admirable, are not notable enough for individual WP articles. Dana boomer (talk) 02:38, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages for the same reason as above:

 * Delete all per nom and my comments in the previous AfDs. Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 01:11, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete all per all of my previous comments - lack of reliable sources and non-trivial mentions fails WP:GNG. Skinny87 (talk) 09:58, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete all per my comment at WP:Articles for deletion/Fred Galoff. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 02:24, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Wait a bit -- have you checked for each one of them that they are not notable otherwise?   DGG ( talk ) 04:49, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * If they are (which is, frankly, unlikely) then the articles can be recreated. But they have clearly been created as part of a series celebrating the military history of Wisconsin, not because they are notable in any other way. They were obviously created in good faith, but simply do not reach the Wikipedia notability bar. It is incumbent on the creator to state why they are notable, and the reason he has stated (being a recipient of the DSC) is not sufficient. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:17, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I've looked through the sources, online and some offline. The only who might be vaguely notable is Krause, as CO of a battalion in the 505th PIR. I'll check my sources to see if he's mentioned non-trivially, but the rest are definitely non-notable as far as I can see. Skinny87 (talk) 14:23, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Very, very reluctant delete. I hate the fact that some felon who made a single between arrests that charted 199 out of 200 for 1 week on Billboard is considered notable to Wikipedia while men who actually DID something in their lives are not considered important enough, but that is the state of affairs here. They fail under WP:MILPEOPLE. Niteshift36 (talk) 16:25, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
