The article does not meet WP:BIO requirements. A Google search confirms that Sutton's notability rests on an isolated incident that had no particular impact on a larger military conflict. Warrah (talk) 12:26, 27 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - for a military bio to be notable based on awards, it would have to be for the award of the Medal of Honor or multiple awards of the Distinguished Service Cross (United States). See WP:MILPEOPLE. (GregJackP (talk) 14:37, 27 March 2010 (UTC))[reply]

- Delete: I had a search around and the best I could find was this [1]. I don't believe that this satisfies WP:GNG or WP:N. In terms of military personnel it doesn't satisfy WP:MILPEOPLE. If the creator can provide a few more sources and provide a positive statement as to what sets this officer apart, then I would consider changing my opinion but as it stands I don't believe the subject meets the current requirements for an article. — AustralianRupert (talk) 04:10, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
