I created the mission tasking thinking that the next leg would was obvious. I sent a PM to keep the CO in the loop but timing did not work out. Therefore I made it a training flight per Standing Orders and returned the aircraft to the originating airfield.

I should not have created the mission tasking with the operation name! Can the operation name be removed? I do not want the flight to appear the statistics of the operation.]]>

For those of you who are unaware, there is a fantastic simulationj platform out there for modern naval combat exercises. Its called Dangerous Waters, and it came out in 2004-2005 from a small company called Sonalysts Combat Simulations.

It is the most recent offering of modern surface and below-the-surface naval warfare available and offers the most complete freedom of strategic maneuver and operation.

Although it came out a few years ago, this is actually advantageous. It means that the price to obtain the software is quite reasonable and within the means of the majority of the user roster. It also means that even a modest system such as a non-gaming laptop computer can support the title reasonably well, and modern 3D gaming desktops can easily enjoy the maximum detail settings.

I highly recommend that each of you go to http://www.sonalystscombatsims.com/dangerous_waters/ and check out their information. At last review, the price point per download was $14.99 USD, with an optional extended download service for an extra $3.99 USD. Quite reasonable for the hours of simulation that you could potentially enjoy.]]>

Charles "Borderhawk" Easley has been promoted to First Lieutenant with the following citation:

[Image: o2_l.jpg]
"Attention to Orders: Headquarters, Unity Security Force, dated 8 March 2010. The Chief of Staff, USEC, has reposed special trust and confidence in the patriotism, valor, fidelity, and professional excellence of 2LT Charles Easley, Commanding Officer Unity Training Academy and Director of Recruiting. In view of these qualities and his demonstrated potential for increased responsibility, and his dedicated service to USEC, he is therefore promoted to the grade of First Lieutenant, with a date of rank of 8 March 2010. By Order of the Deputy Chief of Staff, USEC: USEC SO v.3.3, Chapter 3, Section 3, Paragraph 3.3.4. "

1LT Easley is a man who needs little introduction. He is a true legend among the USEC corps. Rising from the ranks, he became the inaugural Sergeant Major of the Force before assuming the Command of UX-152. He has since increased his responsibility further, taking on the mantle of the Director of Recruiting and assuming command of the Unity Training Academy.

USEC is as solid as it is because of the contributions and dedication displayed by members such as 1LT Easley. Please join me in congratulating him on this milestone promotion, as well as extending heartfelt thanks for a career characterized by selfless and honorable service at every step of the way.

Congratulations, Lieutenant.]]>
