Speedy delete No indication of importance. --Hirolovesswords (talk) 03:11, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not a general and the Legion of Merit is not a high enough honour to justify automatic inclusion. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:08, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:MILBIO and WP:OUTCOMES. Officers below the rank of major general or rear admiral are rarely automatically notable, and there is no such allegation of notability here. Sometimes, a brigadier general can be notable if he had independent notability, for example Zachary Taylor, Noel F. Parrish, Frank E. Petersen, or Sherian Cadoria; likewise, a "first" for a major could be notable (e.g, Shawna Rochelle Kimbrell). If he had a notable relative, we could merge his bio into theirs, cf.

- In actual fact, under WP:SOLDIER all general and flag officers are notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 22:49, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
