Improved to Good Article status by Hog Farm (talk). Self-nominated at 04:23, 15 May 2020 (UTC).
Hi Hog Farm, review follows: article promoted to GA on 15 May; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; no overly close paraphrasing spotted from the few online sources; hook facts are interesting and mentioned in the article; ALT0 is sourced offline, ALT1 to a reliable US museum website; I added "Confederate General" to ALT1 to provide some context; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks good to me - Dumelow (talk) 09:27, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
GA status, no copyvio issues, AGF for the 1st hook, 2nd hook links to a RS. Looks OK to me Gbawden (talk) 18:30, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
