Hi there, I am happy to tell you that this article has passed GA without the need for any further improvement. Listed below is information on how the article fared against the Wikipedia:good article criteria. I have to say that I think this article is genuinely excellent and would support it at FAC as is if it came up there.--Jackyd101 (talk) 18:25, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Good point. I added it there (and in the lead of USS Jacob Jones (DD-61), upon which this summary was based). — Bellhalla (talk) 19:50, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
