I haven't been able to find notability online. As noted at the top of the article, it's based on an interview the author did with the subject a couple weeks ago. Natureium (talk) 22:27, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
- Very very strong delete This is the worst abuse of article space I have ever seen. The purpose of Wikipedia is not to publish interviews with veterans who served minor roles in war. All the more so when they include backing claims 40 almost 50 years after the fact with quotes that do not actually support what is said. The editor who dumped this in Wikipedia would do well to read accounts on the meaning of memory and then studying what Wikipedia is and is not before creating another article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:32, 5 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:NOR and WP:V, the "interview conducted by S. Guthier" doesn't appear to be public elsewhere. power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:19, 5 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete fails WP:MILPEOPLE as well as WP:ANYBIO. The "Legionnaire of the Year" award was not a national, state, or even regional level award, it was for the local Post, therefore not notable. Operator873CONNECT 02:31, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - the article was obviously created in good faith, but the creator should have a look at What Wikipedia is not. The subject does not meet WP:ANYBIO or WP:SOLDIER, and the lack of independent sources means he also doesn't meet WP:GNG. --bonadea contributions talk 18:15, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
