Re Sun fontpage with Prince Harry on it

I'm editing in good faith. No one responded on the talkpage and I couldn't find discussion elsewhere--so, in all sincerity, how am I to ascertain that the action I rvted had indeed been performed by an admin? --Justmeherenow (talk) 16:45, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

The nomination

For what it's worth, I'm a United States veteran of the Global War on Terrorism. Although I didn't get sent to Iraq I did go to a war zone. This video is an effective illustration of actual field conditions: their training and standing orders compel them to assess whether a weapon is present, and that isn't always perfectly clear. They had only seconds to make reports and respond to the situation. I won't venture comment on whether their action was correct or not; I was in a different branch of service, using different equipment, and following different protocols. Yet I hope the video is thought-provoking: it shows a perspective most civilians don't normally see. Durova^Charge! 21:52, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
