Re: Operational Awards, Marscon 2016
GRYPHON FLEET ORDER 1603-D, 14 MARCH, 2016
All involved spacers and marines have my gratitude and congratulations for successful operations at Marscon in Bloomington, MN, 4-6 March 2016. TRMN personnel planned and hosted not one, but two simultaneous and distinct party rooms, with our RMMC personnel debuting the “Marine Country” party. Additionally, TRMN personnel operated the Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator for the enjoyment of convention attendees. All of these operations require intensive setup and tear down and therefore required extensive team coordination and effort. TRMN personnel logged more than 280 volunteer hours during the event, and this does not even count hours of construction and pre-event preparation prior to Thursday night set-up. The result: further good reputation for TRMN in our local and regional fan community.
The following spacers and marines participated in preparations and operations at Marscon. This was a Fleet Level Event, and therefore the following are hereby awarded the HAVENITE OPERATIONAL SERVICE MEDAL:

Re: OPERATIONAL AWARDS, HONORCON 2015 (FLEET ORDER 1603-A)
The following Second Fleet personnel participated at Honorcon in Raleigh, NC 30OCT-1NOV 2015. Each of them performed qualifying activity for both the HAVENITE WAR CAMPAIGN MEDAL and the SILESIAN ANTI-PIRACY MEDAL:
COL John Debnam, RMMC, MarDet Invincible
CAPTJG Sherman Day, HMS Gallant
CDR Jackie Snedden, HMS Ajax
SBP2 Paulette Kilgore, HMS Intrepid
INM3 Sophia Bull, HMS Valkyrie
PO3 Justin Birt, HMS Sabrepike
SDP3 Ursula Day, HMS Gallant
All of the above except for INM3 Bull previously were awarded both of these awards in 2015. INM3 Bull is hereby awarded the HWM and SAPC effective 1 NOV 2015. Any of the above that were not actually awarded either of these previously in 2015 is hereby awarded effective 1 NOV 2015.
The After Action Reports I have received indicate that every one of these seven members volunteered for many hours, going far above and beyond mere qualification. I wish to extend my thanks and personal commendation for the way that they have represented the excellence of Gryphon Fleet to the rest of the organization at an Admiralty Level event. Further, it has become apparent that the service of this Magnificent Seven at Honorcon is the tip of the iceberg, representative of the excellent service each of them renders to the organization year round. Therefore, by my authority as Commanding Officer, Second Fleet, the following personnel are hereby awarded the MERITORIOUS SERVICE MEDAL:
COL John Debnam, RMMC, MarDet Invincible
CAPTJG Sherman Day, HMS Gallant
CDR Jackie Snedden, HMS Ajax
SBP2 Paulette Kilgore, HMS Intrepid
INM3 Sophia Bull, HMS Valkyrie
PO3 Justin Birt, HMS Sabrepike
SDP3 Ursula Day, HMS Gallant
