Comment: This article appears to be well sourced, though, as the nominator notes, it could use page numbers. The AfD isn't viable on grounds of poor sourcing. It may however be non notable, depending upon the community consensus. Buckshot06 (talk) 04:59, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: the article really doesn't seem to indicate how this officer was more notable than any other. Many of the citations seem like they are to sources that might not be considered reliable sources. — AustralianRupert (talk) 11:26, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
