Needs work[edit]

This page obviously needs work, but I had a photo of the patch and some basics to get started. Anyone who was stationed there under or alongside the 44th, please add. Pharmboy 21:51, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rating needs update[edit]

User:Lineagegeek That's the largest Start article I've seen! Did you check...that Start rating is actually 14 years old, when it was just two sentences [1] . Needs an update, methinks. Widefox; talk 21:06, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're right in that B3=yes. (And I changed that) However, B1 and B2 remain =no. If it is the largest Start you have seen, why only 6 footnotes? It would take a huge amount of work to make B1=yes. A little tweaking could make B2=yes (I'll leave that up to you), but just in the lead, the 44th Bombardment Group is not a predecessor of the wing, it is a predecessor of the 44th Fighter Group. Length does not make for accuracy or suitable referencing, at least one of which is needed for even a C rating. Lineagegeek (talk) 22:12, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
