Re: Operational Awards,Who’s Yer Con 2017
GRYPHON FLEET ORDER 1704-A, 4APR2017
My thanks to the personnel who conducted Royal Manticoran Navy operations at Who’s Yer Con, held in Indianapolis, IN, 31 March-2 April 2017. This was a fleet level event with a recruiting table, and our participating personnel recruited nine new members for the local chapter, as well as members for a chapter in a neighboring state. Well done! All awards are effective 4 April 2017.
The following personnel are awarded the HAVENITE OPERATIONAL SERVICE MEDAL for their participation at Who’s Yer Con 2017:
CAPTJG Jackie SNEDDEN, HMS Ajax
CDR Christina SWANSON, HMS Gryphon
ENS Scott SOMERVILLE, HMS Gryphon
SCPO Brad HANDLEY, HMS Ajax
PSGT Paula HANDLEY, RMMC, HMS Ajax
The following personnel performed qualifying service for the HOS, but were previously awarded this medal in 2017:

The following personnel are awarded the NAVY/MARINE ACHIEVEMENT MEDAL, for their initiative in acquiring from Baen Books a set of display plates of Honorverse series book jackets, which greatly enhanced the presentation of the recruiting table operation:

CDR Christina SWANSON is hereby MENTIONED IN DISPATCHES for her planning and executing this operation. She worked with the convention and paid the fees for the table and a TRMN advertisement in the program book from her own pocket, and without her this successful operation to promote The Royal Manticoran Navy would not have happened in the first place.

Re: Toys for Tots Drive thanks (Fleet Order 1512-A)
I wish to publicly recognize the Marine Detachments of Battle Division 11 for their initiative and hard work in conceiving, promoting, coordinating, and executing a drive that netted 358 gifts donated to Toys for Tots. It is highly appropriate that our own Royal Manticoran marines take the lead in our participation in a charitable program run by the USMC Reserve. Particular mention is given to COL Bryar Nelson of MarDet Invincible and SSGT Jess Dunow of MarDet Valkyrie for coordinating their ships’ efforts. Thanks to ALL TRMN members who donated to the drive. Together we make a big splash, and that is one of the great potentials of a club like this.
The Tradition Lives! (CAN DO!)
