Deletion request[edit]

The reason I canceled the deletion request for this page has to do with the age of this camp, the significant events that took place here, and the large amount of reference that can account and verify for all of the information said in this article. The main reference is a first hand historical book written by Kenneth Wells, (one of the first staff members - worked at Camp Meriwether in 1926) called "An Early History of Camp Meriwether.

The book you mention as "the main reference" is not in fact cited anywhere in the article at all. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 08:02, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Roger (Dodger67), thanks for catching that! I now have the reference in the article among many others. Good Catch! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jacob Mehringer (talk • contribs) 21:25, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(re-)assessment request[edit]

Just looking for a (re-)assessment from anyone qualified to do it. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jacob Mehringer (talk • contribs) 02:18, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty confident that the work done at the Chamberlain memorial was done by JobCorps and not by the Coast Guard. They did a substantial amount of structural and electrical work at Meriwether in the 80's, I believe the CPC allowed them to stay in the staff cabins while they were doing the work. This is an eye witness account. Michael Roth, November 30, 20152601:147:C201:90E7:59DB:3B0E:52E5:8D21 (talk) 18:16, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
