Most likely people know of the film by the same name and not being aware of it being a loose adaptation to this book. Anyway, this article was promoted to FA status in 2006 its obvious that its not up to snuff when looking at today's criteria. One notable issue it has it is the lack of sourcing. One example of this is in the "Military history, traditions, and military science" section. Another issue is has is how its written. Feels like something out of Sparknotes. "The raid itself, one of the few instances of actual combat in the novel, is relatively brief" is an example of how the prose is that good. And finally there are problems with its structure as there are one line paragraphs in it (Adaptations).
Something also worth mentioning is when compared to it on the day it became featured, its looks to be better structure wise. Maybe going back to how it looked then and fixing the other issues it has can it be improved massively. GamerPro64 19:18, 27 June 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
