Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:10, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply] - Support—Agreed that it seems there's too little media coverage to warrant a full article, despite the organization having existed for ten years and seemingly having done some good work in Vietnam. As per link above, the primary source for this organization is the Toledo Blade, with several other local papers such as the Monroe Evening News (behind paywall) and Southgate News Herald picking up the story, giving little more than passing mention as part of pieces on individual Vietnam War vets who have done work with the org. I did find one other mention in the U.S. Congressional Record ([2]), but again, it's a passing mention as part of a tribute to one of the co-founders(?). Perhaps the info in this article could be integrated into a biographical article on the founder (pending evaluation of notability, of course)? --dragfyre_ʞןɐʇc 17:45, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
