Re: Award of Queen’s Bravery Medal: Handley, B.
GRYPHON FLEET ORDER 1708-A 10AUG2017
AWARD CITATION: Upon being made aware of a breakdown in communication that lead to a lack of complete security coverage during the Art Show at LibertyCon 30, in Chatanooga, Tennessee, 30 June through 2 July 2017, 1SGT Brad HANDLEY went above and beyond his duty in helping to coordinate and cover down security shifts for the Art Show allowing for complete security coverage. This allowed an uninterrupted coverage of Art Show security and saved face for the TRMN as a whole. He was also instrumental in straightening out a problem with the TRMN fan table with Con Staff. His actions reflect great credit upon himself, the Service, and the TRMN.
Now, therefore, by my authority as Commanding Officer, Second Fleet, First Sergeant Brad Handley, HMS Ajax, is hereby awarded the QUEEN’S BRAVERY MEDAL, effective 10 August, 2017
My congratulations and thanks to 1SGT Handley for his representation of Gryphon Fleet at this event outside the fleet area, in the proud tradition of the Royal Manticoran Marine Corps.
The Tradition Lives!

Re: Achievement Awards, MantiCon 2017
GRYPHON FLEET ORDER 1707-B, 18JUL2017
Once again, I am honored to command the host fleet for MantiCon which, along with HonorCon, comprises the largest scale operation undertaken by The Royal Manticoran Navy. Volunteers for MantiCon 2017 included spacers, marines, soldiers, and civilians from at least 26 ships, all of the Admiralty bureaus, and representatives of our Grayson, Havenite, and Andermani allies.
The Havenite War Campaign Medal (HWC) issued under Gryphon Fleet Order 1706-A (03JUN2017) is the award given for volunteer service to MantiCon. However, with the scope of this operation, requiring thousands of hours of total service including the months of preparation time, the “above and beyond” level of service performed by some of these volunteers warrants an achievement award in addition to the HWC. Therefore, the convention chairs and committee have recommended the following awards and I am pleased to issue them.
NOTE that this order includes only awards for which a Fleet Commanding Officer has the authority to issue. Further awards for MantiCon 2017 achievement will be forthcoming at a later date, issued by the First Space Lord and the First Lord of the Admiralty, but these awards for have additional procedure and take longer to process.
