:I'm not going to "improve" an article about something that doesn't exist. Retitle this article and it might be improved. [[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C. Berkowitz]] 18:50, 14 February 2009 (UTC) Military Workgroup Editor
::Well, that's exactly what I was going to suggest -- why don't you Move it to the correct place? And then, if you feel like doing so, add perhaps a single sentence to the lede along the lines of, "Although the Bush administration, and many media sources, frequently referred to a "USAFM", such a thing does not, nor did not, ever exist under that particular name. The correct title for this is/was/should be so-and-so." Once this has been done, I will be very happy to delete this incorrectly titled article.
