  • Date, size are fine but the article only states that it was the second time that the pilots fought as infantry, not that it was the second time the planes were destroyed.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 20:45, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
    • Should be fixed now. Palm_Dogg (talk) 17:30, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
  • ALT 1: that the September 2012 Camp Bastion raid was described as the worst loss of U.S. airpower in a single incident since the Vietnam War.
  • All the more remarkable as it was so few Afghans... but more ALT hooks are possible. Geoffjw1978 T L C 21:53, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
  • I've done some checks and the refs and notability are fine. Almost there... Geoffjw1978 T L C 09:00, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
  • So this is now just waiting for QPQ, some DyK help either from Cla68 or Palm dogg. (Note: Cla68 has shown some good efforts engaging with the ongoing Gibraltarpedia debacle). Geoffjw1978 T L C 09:00, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
ALT1 (hook) approved. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 18:13, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
