As per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/101st Chemical Company (United States) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/722nd Ordnance Company (United States), separate, non-combat companies are not usually considered notable Buckshot06 (talk) 04:44, 30 July 2010 (UTC) (categories)[reply]
- Delete per nom. The only additional sources I can find on the unit are this article in a US Army logistics journal (which provides reasonable depth of coverage, but not independent of the unit), passing mentions on other websites and the unit's own websites. As such, WP:ORG doesn't appear to be met. Nick-D (talk) 04:53, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: per established precedent, a company-sized unit in the U.S. military has to demonstrate some real notability to warrant an article. This article has not, and relies on a single first-party source. Suggest upmerge to 57th Transportation Battalion (United States) or 593rd Sustainment Brigade (United States). bahamut0013wordsdeeds 11:44, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Article just lists the unit's lineage and doesn't demonstrate how this company size unit is notable. This is also the U.S. Army, the U.S. Marines have similar units but don't number them. Marine unit lineage and notability also starts with battalions, not companies.--NortyNort (Holla) 11:49, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
