A very cool image I found surfing Army news releases, quite high res and stunning IMO. Staxringold 00:34, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. The only article this picture is used in is a stub. Plus - it is not a good illustration for that article either. I do not think this picture is of high value for an encyclopedia. Mikeo 11:05, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I've added it to Camp Shelby (where the unit was departing from) and the "Field marching" subsection of Marching band, as although it is not a marching band it very clearly shows field marching (making shapes on the field with large numbers of people).

  • Oppose Unless Camp Shelby consists of a field of grass and not much more, this doesn't do a good job of pictorially representing it. Also, as you say, it doesn't illustrate the article content of the marching band article as they aren't a band. It is an impressive feat to pull off, but I have to agree with Mikeo. I hope they didn't spend all their time learning how to do field marching; this would make a rather poor combat formation. :)WAvegetarianCONTRIBUTIONSTALKEMAIL 20:36, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
