Notable pre internet War hero: he commanded the 800 Naval Air Squadron|800 NAS Harrier group during the Falklands War and of the 13 enemy planes shot down by Harrier|Harriers he is responsible for 15%. As Ykraps has stated, the subject passes  "Played an important role in a significant military event such as a major battle or campaign" (criterion #4). In depth coverage regarding pre-internet subjects is a troubling theme in AfD. Fact: The Falklands War is rarely mentioned without mentioning Andy Auld. Soldiers are known for their soldiering and this soldier's name appears in multiple books, news articles, and on our own Wikipedia coverage.  . Andy Auld was a war hero who retired to private life without fanfare, and without getting into news worthy trouble. My thoughts are also that this person passes number 1 and number 2 of  for his Distinguished Service Cross (United Kingdom)|Distinguished service cross and major contribution in the Falklands War: 1. ''The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times. 2. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field
