Merger proposal

edit

I am suggesting that this page be merged into Vermont National Guard. The units are collectively called the Green Mountain Boys, after the eponymous original unit. Both the Air Guard and Army Guard information complement each other, and neither alone is long enough to require separate articles.
If in the future the sections have been added to significantly, than a split may be appropriate, but to do so now is less useful than one combined page.

Furthermore; both the Army Guard, and the Air Guard in Vermont are led by the same Adjunct General (Michael Dubie) —MJBurrage(TC) 19:26, 24 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

The custom for National Guard articles is to start with the state article, and once either Air or Army National Guard sections grow large enough, they are split off. In this case, the Air NG article is a stub (no idea why it was split so early), but I think that if you leave it be, it will grow to a more comprehensive article. bahamut0013 16:49, 26 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
The current stub actually has less useful content than the parent article's existing section, and I do not have the background to properly expand either. If we keep the stub I am afraid that any work by those with more knowledge will be split between the two locations and suffer for it. —MJBurrage(TC) 19:49, 26 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
