I discovered it while wiki-wandering today and removed a lot of hagiographic, irrelevant, and redundant content. I'll put it on my desk in the "needs sources" pile.

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Hugh Mercer/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

The article lacks sources but is fleshed out with material available in battle articles. It has several images and external links. More attention should be paid to the period between 1755 and 1776, when Mercer lived in Pennsylvania and Fredericksburg, Virginia.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Hugh Mercer. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20131101182945/http://www.wsav.com/story/20684153/specialist-christopher-kit-lowe-receives-bronze-star to http://www.wsav.com/story/20684153/specialist-christopher-kit-lowe-receives-bronze-star

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Editors have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the RfC before doing mass systematic removals.
