• Support - Solid image. Good restoration. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:12, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support Cropped a bit on the top and right, and think I'd have preferred it less cropped, but not so problematic as to necessitate opposition. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 09:27, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
• Comment, leaning oppose I don't think that a photo of soldiers doing basic physical training is a particularly good image to illustrate what was an artillery training school which would have been focused on teaching soldiers how to operate anti-aircraft guns (which were generally large crew-served weapons fired from seated positions).
