For the first hook, the sentence needs to be directly cited in the article. For ALT1, the article says that the unit was the first American unit to be there, but it says nothing about them doing it voluntarily. ALT1 is directly cited, but the Newspapers.com source does not verify the hook. The last sentence of the Work section needs to be referenced. Ancestry.com is considered to be an unreliable source per WP:UGC. The image appears to be a copyright violation. There is no indication on the website that any free license is acceptable. I will look at this more once these issues are fixed. SL93 (talk) 01:55, 27 May 2021 (UTC)- I nominated the image for deletion on Commons. SL93 (talk) 02:04, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
- To note, the text also has a serious copyvio issue. Innisfree987 (talk) 01:05, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
@Innisfree987: I'm not suprised after nominating some of the nominator's images for deletion at Commons. I'm marking this for closure. SL93 (talk) 01:13, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
