• But a cute one. Quick, does anyone want to turn this into anything? If not, Delete per nom. ~ trialsanderrors 05:24, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - ...but it IS very cute. Artw 05:32, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete unless someone turns this into something fast. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 05:56, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Extremely Weak Keep but only if expanded. As is, it's an A1 candidate. --DarkAudit 14:11, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep There seems to be a precedent for allowing articles for squadron strength airforce units. [1][2][3]--IslaySolomon 14:57, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - and expand. --Kungfu Adam ^(talk) 17:38, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep: Seems legit, just make it a stub, and somebody write the article. Put it on some To Do lists, if nobody wants to do it. J Milburn 18:37, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Seems notable subject.--Runcorn 19:41, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
  • And so Stubbed --DarkAudit 19:42, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect. The Global site says that the 41st has been renamed 43rd Airlift Wing. Pope's Web site does not list a 41st. Redirect to Pope or a unit located at Pope. Fg2 00:35, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. A Squadron and a Wing are rather different. If it was 'renamed' then with was the creation of a new unit. Military units have their own history and they have a history of being reactivated in the future so leaving this would seem the right thing. Of course some expansion would help.

  • I have included some additional information in the history. This unit was active in WWII so it likely meets the notability requirements from that action alone. I think enough was added to address the issues that were behind the delete votes and they should be reconsidered. Vegaswikian 18:39, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
