Just when we'dhighlighted that June's tally of Featured and A-Class articles was the highest this year, along comesJuly's list to break the record again...! This is a tribute not only to the editors and nominators of these quality articles, but to the reviewers who offer constructive criticism, and ultimately get behind the articles' promotion.
On that note, the MilHist reviewing awards for April–June were handed out last month.Dank,Nikkimaria, andAustralianRupert topped the list; you can see everyone's namehere. Our thanks and congratulations to all of them.
Congratulations also toCdtew andTomobe03 on their inauguralA-Class medals, which we're sure will be only the first of many.
