A Silver Star and a Military Cross, both third level, aren't enough to satisfy WP:SOLDIER. He gets mentioned for what he did to earn those honors in a couple of books, but that's about it. Clarityfiend (talk) 09:17, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment. Not sure about this one. It is very unusual for British gallantry awards to be conferred on non-Commonwealth people, so I wouldn't vote delete out of hand. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:04, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable enough for his own article; trivia. Kierzek (talk) 14:50, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment Verified the award of the Military Cross to McDaniel and Shumate. I found several references to the incident, eg It was the first time a blood transfusion was administered on a helicopter. The British officer in question, Lt Stanley Leonard, RN, rose to become a captain.    Hawkeye7   (discuss)  05:27, 23 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - with all due respect for the gentleman, nothing indicates he was notable per WP:ANYBIO.--Rpclod (talk) 15:09, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
