  • ALT1:... that the performance of No. 77 Squadron RAAF in the Korean War (Gloster Meteor pictured) has been cited as a factor in the United States agreeing to ratify the ANZUS treaty in September 1951?
  • Reviewed: Sam Levy
  • Comment: Just to be clear, top (colour) image supports main hook, bottom (black-and-white) image supports ALT1.

Improved to Good Article status by Ian Rose (talk). Self nominated at 07:14, 20 October 2014 (UTC).

  • . Long enough (24,652 characters), new enough (promoted to Good Article status on 15 October 2014), fully referenced. QPQ done. Images appropriated licensed (prefer the colour one though, so main hook preferred). Main hook verified against online source. ALT1 hook verified against offline source (but on my bookshelf). Good to go! Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:32, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
