Improvements

I have just completed the B class checklist for the Military History project and believe that this article could be improved by addressing the following issues:

Referencing: the addition of in-line citations would help to improve the article by assisting in verifying the information provided. These could be added into a Notes section, where any incedental points could also be included if there are any;
Coverage: the article could be expanded to include any battle honours that the unit received, a more detailed discussion of the major incidents that the unit was involved in, a list of commanding officers, any decorations received and casualties suffered;
Supporting materials: the article could be improved by the addition of an infobox or some images if any are available.

Just a few ideas. If you would like more in depth comments, please consider putting the article up for peer review at WP:MHPR. Once you feel that the article is ready for re-assessment, please add it to the list at WP:MHA. Hope this helps. Cheers. AustralianRupert (talk) 05:20, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
