• @Peacemaker67: GA, new enough, neutral, sourced, offline hook source accepted as good faith. Two issues:

1. The quotation in the article says "AIF," not "Australian Imperial Force." I suggest rewording the hook to something like "the Australian Imperial Force's 'foremost fighting leader'" or similar ("the 'foremost fighting leader in the' Australian Imperial Force" would work too), to avoid changing the quotation.
2. The article uses "AIF" in the first paragraph, but only defines what it is in the second paragraph. I suggest changing it (see examples above) so that it is defined right away. --Usernameunique (talk) 08:16, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
