- Comment: Expansion from a 2-sentence stub that was tagged for notability.

- Expansion is enough, hook is interesting. Not convinced of the value of these interwiki links as they lead to single line articles themselves at best, and non-existent articles in some cases (except for 1er régiment de chasseurs which has some content). Etalle and XXI Corps are disambiguation links that should be fixed. CMD (talk) 03:46, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
