Recent discussion at WT:MILHIST concluded [1] that separate company level subunits that are not capable of independent combat action are not notable. Several deletions and Prods have taken place in line with this, eg Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/722nd Ordnance Company (United States). This this subunit is being nominated for deletion.

- Delete trivial operations, trivial awards, as is usual of support companies. If one should ever actually do something notable, then that one might be notable, but I haven't seen an example here yet. DGG ( talk ) 21:03, 5 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - I supported the original proposed deletion, basing my support on WP:CORP criteria. I'm not aware of any specific inclusion criteria that might apply to a US military company. I've asked WP:MIL if they could look at the article and give their opinion. I suspect that DGG is correct in his evaluation of the article. -- Atama頭 21:30, 5 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete This was the most exensive coverage I could find, but it takes more than routine coverage of a unit homecoming to establish notability. Rusty Cashman (talk) 07:26, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per lack of significant coverage in reliable independent secondary sources. As with most support service sub-units, this unit is not automatically notable (though should it become so, an article would be welcome). EyeSerenetalk 08:08, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per DGG. Nothing to indicate notability here. –Juliancolton | Talk 17:54, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
