... that the SAS is based in Australia?

ALT1:~~... that the Special Air Service Regiment is based in Australia?~~
Comment: Hook true, likely to draw views from those confusing with British SAS. A different hook may be preferred, and I am open to suggestions

Improved to Good Article status by Anotherclown (talk). Nominated by Matty.007 (talk) at 17:59, 13 June 2014 (UTC).

New enough, long enough, fully referenced. No QPQ required. Hook verified. Good to go! Hawkeye7 (talk) 05:00, 15 June 2014 (UTC)
Why is "...that X is located in Y" interesting? Yoninah (talk) 16:55, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

As everyone will mistake them for the Special Air Service and go "oh! The SAS are based in Australia?" Thanks, Mat ty.007 17:00, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

So make a different hook to that effect. Alternately:
ALT2: ... that most fatalities in the Special Air Service Regiment are due to training accidents, such as the collision of two Blackhawk helicopters during a live-fire counter-terrorism exercise in Queensland? Yoninah (talk) 17:04, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

Not sure what you mean by "So make a different hook to that effect", that is precisely the point of the original and alt hook. Thanks, Mat ty.007 17:06, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

OK, so go with the first hook. Reinstating tick. Yoninah (talk) 17:42, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
