Comment: If it's deemed that ALT1 doesn't make any sense to readers without a background knowledge of US geography, I'm fine with striking it. I'm working on a series of Missouri Confederate articles, I think this is like the 13th DYK nom in the series, and I'm kinda running out of interesting things to say about these units.

Hi
Hog Farm, review follows: article created 19 June; article is of good length, well written and cited inline throughout to offline, reliable sources; all sources are offline but I am happy to AGF there is no copyright violation from these; both hooks are mentioned in the article and cited reliably and both are interesting (to me at least!); a QPQ has been carried out. Another excellently written and interesting article, thanks for your work on these -
