Talk:Plebe Summer

I am currently working on completing this page and will include various citations from reputable sources before I am finished with the page. The page is no complete with many sources cited throughout the article.

I'm removing the A7 tag. It clearly does not apply because A7 only applies to people, groups, companies and web content, of which this is not. However, even though the USNA is a reliable source, it's also primary. An article would need third-party sources as well; I have no doubt such source exist. ColourBurst 03:09, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

I also did include third-party sources. http://www.usna-parents.org/plebesummer.html is a third-party source which I cited in my article which has no official affiliation with the U.S. Naval Academy. Is this sufficient?

• The Brigade has not drilled with M-1 Garand's since 2003-ish. They use the M-14 instead. Also, "Reform Formation" is very widely colloquially called "Hello Night." I will change the rifle thing if no one does sometime soon. --ProdigySportsman (talk) 22:39, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

The M-1 phaseout is probably worth mentioning in the USNA main article history. One sentence with a ref. Student7 (talk) 03:02, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

Generalizing

This could be part of a larger, more wide-ranging article on "the plebe system". The U.S. Naval Academy is not the only American institution that trains plebes, and I daresay other countries have something like it. --Uncle Ed (talk) 19:58, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

So do the other American military academies, not just the Naval Academy.

• Is "Plebe Summer" a proper-name or is it merely "respect capitalizing" or "importance capitalizing"? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:22, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
