Split article[edit]

I recommend we split this article so the brothers each have their own article.--Kumioko 16:39, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Either name redirects to this article, I think that is the appropriate solution as they are most notable as being brothers who received the MOH and the articles would probably just be mirrors of each other with the name changed. LegoTech·(t)·(c) 22:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Both also won their medals in the exact same action. Keeping them together seems most appropriate for the reasons Legotech mentioned. BrokenSphere^{Msg me} 22:07, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
