... that Valery Varfolomeyev received the title of Hero of the Russian Federation (presentation pictured) for service during the Syrian Civil War?Spokoyni (talk) 21:49, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- I don't think that's particularly interesting either: it's not unusual to receive a decoration for war service (and most readers won't know that Hero of the Russian Federation is a particularly prestigious award). The question is, what did he do that was meritorious? buidhe 05:14, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
That's a reasonable objection. Withdrawing this nomination. Spokoyni (talk) 08:28, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- How about mentioning the submarine division, or the Syrian mission? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:03, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
How about:- ALT2: ... that in 2017, rear admiral Valery Varfolomeyev was named a Hero of the Russian Federation while his 11th Submarine Division was recognised as the best submarine formation in the Northern Fleet? Yoninah (talk) 23:03, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- I like it! Looks good to me. Spokoyni (talk) 14:28, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
I'm fine with it as well. Approving, buidhe 02:33, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
