Airman Basic
I recently re-built this article with complete sourcing as it previously has none. I'd like to build it up/clean it up, but don't really know where to go from here. — pd_THOR | 23:28, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

I like the idea of the article; maybe because I was once in AFJROTC. Two quibbles:
- What does an AB actually do? They obviously don't fly the planes. If just grunt work, what kind, as obviously it can't be too technical.
- Back when I was in AFJROTC, we were told that having three years in allowed us to skip a few ranks. Is that still the case? Might be worth mentioning?
- How does AB compare to similar E-1s in other countries' air forces?
Hope this helps.--King Bedford I 12:43, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

A good start, it is a solid base. It is unlucky that I can't give you a good example to follow as I couldn't find one that has already been developed. So, you are a trail-blazer. So, onto the comments:
- MOS suggestions
- Perhaps link E-1 in the Lead
- The MOS/WP:LAYOUT dictates to us mortals that ==See also== goes above == notes and references.==
- Make sure your dates are consistent, some are linked, some aren't.
- Areas for expansion
- I would have a section on responsibilities, what are the jobs that they typically do? Are there any specialisations?
- How have these changed over time, if anything?
- I would have a section on comparisons with other foreign E-1s. Are there any variations in responsibilities.?
- Where are they accomodated? On base? Barracks etc?
- Is there anymore on the history. What were the recommendations from the "studies made in 1950 and 1951." You could expand on the reasoning behind the creation of the ranks.
So, a few areas to improve. If you have any questions, you can leave them here or on my talkpage. Regards. Woody (talk) 22:24, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
