- ... that Wernher von Braun claimed that General Samuel C. Phillips (pictured) was the man most responsible for putting the pieces of the Apollo program together and making them work? Source: "Before the launching of Apollo 10, in May 1969, Dr. Wernher von Braun, director of the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., singled out General Phillips as the man to whom the greatest credit belonged for pulling the many pieces of the program together and making them work."

Hi Hawkeye7, review follows: article promoted to GA on 14 October; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing from a spot check on sources I have access too (the hook is somewhat close to the source but it's a pseudo-quotation so I think important to preserve the wording); hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; image is fine and appropriately licensed; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 06:56, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
