Hi,

I changed "August First Rockets" back to Bayi Rockets, because English-language media in China and elsewhere very rarely use the name "August First Rockets" (or "August 1st Rockets" or "August 1 Rockets").

Doing a Google search on August First/August 1st/August 1 Rockets shows only a handful of hits, maybe a dozen. Doing a search on "Bayi Rockets" shows 2000+ hits (and "Bayi Shuanglu" and "Bayi Army Rockets" adds a few dozen more). Sites such as http://english.people.com.cn/ (English-language People's Daily) also use "Bayi Rockets".

I did edit the Bayi Rockets page to mention the "August 1st" connection clearer, though.
