Overall: 
Hmm, I could approve ALT1 but I'm not sure if it is the most interesting one. ALT0 is currently lacking a citation directly after the sentence (at the end of a paragraph does not suffice per the rules), but it's rather uninteresting imo. However, I see another possible hook with this sentence: Tony Cucolo notes that the men who trained at IRTCs replaced the dead: "The men trained here knew they were going to the deadliest places on the WWII battlefield."
That would lend a more grim aspect to the history. Maybe in combination with ALT1, it would give meaning to the large number of personnel. What do you think about it? –LordPeterII (talk) 16:32, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, this is all fair enough. (The other thing in the back of my mind was that maybe the picture wasn't interesting enough.) I think we can put Cucolo's comment in Wikipedia voice without any trouble, and so get:

- @StAnselm: Well, the picture might not be the most interesting one, but I can approve it. There's no guarantee any hook will get a picture spot because only one in eight can, so it's a little down to luck if this will appear. I have amnended a "pictured" to ALT2 anyway in case this would happen. And yes, I like ALT2 better.
Approve ALT2 (AGF only because the corresponding source is geoblocked for me). –LordPeterII (talk) 15:14, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- StAnselm - Can a citation be added to the sentence "Other commanding generals included Harold R. Bull and Harry Hazlett." before this is promoted please? I did check the citation of the preceding sentence but it did not seem to contain the relevant information. CSJJ104 (talk) 23:59, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
