Palmer E. Pierce

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because, it just passed a B-class review at MILHIST, but I want to send it to GA, but it needs some work, so I need a PR.

• Find-a-Grave is generally not considered a reliable source
• Is there any further information about his post-Army life?
• I see mention of Palmer E. Pierce as chairman of the Committee on Inter-American Relations in the 1930s - is this the same person?
• There appear to be a fair few scholarly sources mentioning Pierce in relation to the NCAA that could be exploited for this article. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:35, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
  • Got one.--Tomandjerry211 (Let's have a chat) 22:36, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

Comments by Aditya Kabir Many questions remain unanswered:

• I understand that he fought in Spanish-American war of 1898 during the Invasion of Cuba, Puerto Rico, the resurrection of the Philippines, the Boxer Rebellion. What were his troops, ranks and battles?
  • Unsure about what his troops were.--Tomandjerry211 (Let's have a chat) 21:26, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
• What is the Villa Expedition? Why is it not with the rest of the campaigns, in the Early Service section?
  • Done.--Tomandjerry211 (Let's have a chat) 22:36, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
• What is the significance of the Finance Committee? Describing a discussion verbatim seems to be a bit trivializing anyways.
• His command with 27th Infantry Division and the 54th Infantry Regiment, I believe, were during WWI. Were there no battles or campaigns that added to his career?
  • Added one--Tomandjerry211 (Let's have a chat) 21:26, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
• Nothing to report from his days of leadership in Standard Oil Company?
• No family? Father, mother, sister, brother, wife, son, daughter? Who were they?

Please allow me to research a bit more before I make further comments. Aditya^{(talk • contribs)} 20:22, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
