[edit] Operation Beaver Cage

Operation Beaver Cage (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Appears to be a hoax that nobody wants to delete. MarsRover 20:09, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete per WP:HOAX. STORMTRACKER 94 20:15, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Not a hoax, but accuracy may be in question. Although the article indicates that this was in autumn 1966, it was a Marine operation in April 1967 to drive the North Vietnamese out of the area around Da Nang, wtih only limited success. Mandsford 20:27, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - After a quick search it turns out it is in fact real but the article needs refs --Childzy ¤ Talk 20:31, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and cleanup Somebody needs to fact-check the article, though. NASCAR Fan24(radio me!) 21:15, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: - navy.mil site mentions it in passing - http://www.history.navy.mil/ar/charlie/coastal12.htm - but it needs reliable sources. Corvus cornix 22:18, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: I think it need more than fact check. The article is real specific about things that are completely wrong. ("The Republic of the North Vietcong"?, the dates should be around April 30th to May 10th[1]). If you delete everything not true what's left? Also, look at the author's contribs.

  • Comment this might be a starting point for further research on "Hill 110", "Que Son", and "Bravo Company, 1/3 Marines":[2]--Victor falk 23:05, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per above, search validates.JJJ999 00:46, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Deserves to be kept if all facts verified.--Bedivere 19:57, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - it's a mess of an article. I tried to fix a few links. Bearian'sBooties 19:31, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
