John F. Bolt

 * Nominator(s): — Ed! (talk) 02:59, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured article. It's a Good Article which has also recently passed a MILHIST ACR. — Ed! (talk) 02:59, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

So far so good on prose, apart from repeating Bolt's name too often, per standard disclaimer, down to where I stopped, John F. Bolt. I've reviewed the changes made since I reviewed this for A-class. These are my edits. (My edits from tonight will need a few days to show up.) - Dank (push to talk) 03:24, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Source review - spotchecks not done, PD attribution tag present. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:28, 10 July 2012 (UTC) ISBNs Several of the ISBNs have bad checksums and so the clickthroughs won't work. Removing the '978' may be a start towards fixing the problem. Mr Stephen (talk) 10:01, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
 * FN34: missing bibliographic info for this source

 * Fixed. — Ed! (talk) 15:13, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I've done so on the ones that are having the problem. See if that helps. — Ed! (talk) 12:59, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
 * They look OK now. Mr Stephen (talk) 14:26, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Comment - the only thing I see is on your footnote, " In 2000 this award was made retroactive to all US military personnel who served in the Korean War." Any source for this? Everything else looks good. GregJackP  Boomer!   18:33, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
