I noticed you rated this article a B class and I was wondering if you noticed anything that need to be expanded or corrected.  I will be submitting this for GA review soon and I wanted to ask your opinion since you graded it. --Kumioko (talk) 14:56, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Wow, that was like over a year ago.  I have looked at the article just now and it appears that you have done a lot of good work on it.  A few notes that I have:  The Other Honors section and the USS Michael Monsoor (DDG-1001) section are repetative.  Also, I don't see any references for the Medal of Honor citation or the Silver Star citation.  My personal take is, when ever a specific claim is made (including quoted text) a specific reference is needed even if there is already a reference in the article for it.  I hope this helps.--dashiellx (talk) 18:08, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It helps a lot thanks I will take care of those points.  I will probably be submitting this to GA tonight or tomorrow once I fix these items and give it a last read through. --Kumioko (talk) 20:30, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Burial

message: Being a bit of a history buff, I thought I would share with you why this story is false, or really a slight stretch of the truth.  Military Funerals are very moving and formal events.  From the time the Casket leaves Dover Airforce Base till the time it is placed on the Lift at the gravesite it is covered with the Flag of the United States.  After a 21 Gun Salute and then the playing of taps, the flag is then folded by the honor guard and presented to the family.  Particularly a Military Funeral, held at a Military Cemetary.
I have no doubt that in paying their last repects to the soldier that the 45 Seals embedded their tridents into the top of the casket, but I am sure it was done graveside, and not as reported in this article.  And I am sure it was still a very moving event in this fashion.  Additionally it is held by 6 Pall Bearers, who in this case would have been a Naval Honor Guard.  Imagine the scene caused by a Navy Seal (think size and weight) moving a pall bearer aside during the procession to put a trident in the center of the top of the lid of the coffin.  ---- m.klahr ---04/19/2010  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.76.84.32 (talk) 19:12, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: That his casket was covered with SEAL Tridents is documented by various news outlets. This is an occurrence that has happened at other SEAL funerals as well. The notion that the event didn't happen is quite simply false.74.138.45.132 (talk) 01:30, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Is this story True?

message: Just wanted to bring this to the attention of whomever updates this page, Mikey was just posthumously promoted 2 pay grades to an (Honorary) Chief Petty Officer (E-7) on the 15th so I figured I'd just kinda pop in and bring this up so his page can get updated since I do PAO related stuff for the USS Michael Monsoor but I don't really mess with Wikipedia.
