Operation Ivory Soap
Aircraft maintenance ship
- ... that Operation Ivory Soap created and operated a fleet of aircraft repair vessels (example pictured) to support the U.S. island-hopping strategy in the Pacific during World War II? Source: Hook is a summary the whole article, stated in ref1 for example - Congressional record and ref6 (Felknor).
- ALT1: ... that Operation Ivory Soap, a World War II forward theatre aircraft repair unit, was not declassified until 1953? Source: Needs inline citation.
- ALT2: ... that Operation Ivory Soap manned a fleet of aircraft repair vessels (example pictured) with 5,000 US Army Air Corp seaman? Source: Also in ref1 - Congressional record
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Egyptian Queen
- Comment: ALT0 could work with or without image. ALT2 is best without image. ALT2 is an option for the quirky slot
Created by Btphelps (talk). Nominated by MB (talk) at 02:45, 11 February 2022 (UTC).
- Article: The article was created within the last week. More than long enough, nicely sourced. No neutrality issues.
- Hook: The hooks are long enough, properly sourced. To me, ALT0 is the one that caught my eye the most (never knew about the island-hoping strategy)
- The picture is on the PD. QPQ fulfilled.
- Good to go.
