Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/News/March 2021/Project news

Welcome to the third Bugle for 2021!

A backlog drive will be run throughout the month of April. Editors are invited to update the B-class reviews of articles, and participate in GA and higher-level review processes. This will help to clear the large and slow-moving backlog of articles up for review, as well as provide an up-to-date assessment of articles at B-class or lower. For further information and to sign up for the drive, head to WikiProject Military History/April 2021 Reviewing Drive.

The regular article news section highlights a lot of new featured and A-class content. These include eight new FAs, a featured picture, and seven new A-class articles. Congratulations to all the responsible editors.

The book review section includes two reviews this month, on quite different books. provides an assessment of a good book on the role of female 'computers' in the early US space and missile programs, and discusses a disappointing work on the Israeli military.

Last but not least, welcome to, , , and  who all joined the project in February. If you have any questions, feel free to contact one of the coordinators or post on WT:MILHIST if you have any questions.

Your editors, Ian Rose (talk) and Nick-D (talk)
