This stub with 320 characters (not including external links or templates) does not have enough significant coverage from multiple reliable sources that are independent of the subject to be considered notable. Generally units of this size (smaller than a squadron/company) are not considered notable by WP:MILUNIT, nor is it a combat unit. — -dainomite 01:52, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Why on earth would the fact that it isn't a combat unit be relevant? Combat units are no more inherently notable than non-combat units. -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:19, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think that part of my statement was misinterpreted. I didn't mean delete it just because it isn't a combat unit. Non-combat units more often than not lack notability due to a general lack of coverage from independent or reliable sources. — -dainomite 17:33, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
