WP:MilHist Assessment

A nice long article, with an infobox and a thorough and organized treatment of the subject. I like the flags in the infobox; they're a nice touch. The "Unknowns" under commanders seems odd - even if we don't know the names of the generals, I think it would be good to put the heads of state here; it's better than Unknown, and provides at least some continuity and understanding of events under a given person's rule. Otherwise, a fine article. Keep up the good work, and thank you in particular for giving such attention to what could otherwise be a rather obscure and esoteric subject.
