CSS Pontchartrain
- ... that the captain of CSS Pontchartrain was twice detached from the ship to fight in land battles? Source: The Encyclopedia of Arkansas entry (ref 2 in article)
Created by Hog Farm (talk). Self-nominated at 17:55, 10 May 2022 (UTC).
The article is new enough, long enough, and abides by all the relevant policies (referencing, neutrality, plagiarism). Hook length is well within the limit and interesting. The land battles in question are the battles of St. Charles and Arkansas Post, both of which are in the article and can be confirmed via the source provided. I was somewhat thrown off at first because the information doesn't appear in one place, but I don't object, given that the hook accurately reflects well-referenced content. The nominator has done their QPQ. Modussiccandi (talk) 08:37, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
