This article has been tagged as a hoax because it cites no sources. My searches for sources have returned no sources to verify the existence of this World War I veteran. Reasons for deletion could be Notability (biographies) and Verifiability. If sources can be found to establish notability, I will withdraw this AfD. Cunard (talk) 10:00, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. I tagged the article as such, and was hoping someone would find sources that I was unable to find. --BaronLarf 10:06, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Note The article links to two supposed relatives: William G. Roll, Jr. and Sigurd Roll. If this person is a hoax, then both these articles need to be checked.--Auric (talk) 14:58, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I read the 2 articles and the references are in place and the people involved existed. In fact one of the articles was done by an editor who received DYK for several article the editor has written. I still think this article is a hoax and the 2 articles were wikilink to this article as part of the hoax-Thank you-RFD (talk) 22:50, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
