Nominating this article for A-Class review because... now that Eurocopter's very enjoyable WWI contest is over, it's time to get back to some WWII and Cold War subjects! A highly regarded operational commander in the Pacific War, Walters also just missed out (twice!) on getting the RAAF's top job of Chief of the Air Staff. Any and all comments welcome...

- Tks mate. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 10:43, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support This is a great article which easily meets the criteria. My only comment is that the sentence combining Walters' interest in horse racing with his death seems a bit odd unless there was a link between the two things. Nick-D (talk) 09:18, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Tks Nick - you never know...! No, you're right, and I've modifed it. It's true, I sometimes join disparate thoughts and am probably overly fond of commas. Possibly stems from reading the bible too much as a young'un (my wife, who calls herself "cautiously Catholic", likes to describe me as the most biblically-literate athiest she knows)... ;-) Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 10:43, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support No problems reported with dab links, external links, or alt text. Well Done! TomStar81 (Talk) 02:18, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
