Why don't you do something productive, like pass me another beverage.  And get out your mechanic's gloves (with the padded palms) for the awards ceremony.

Opening briefing/speeches, first mini session, lunch, and planetarium completed.  Next up is the awards and promotions ceremony.

Not a bad time, but nothing really spectacular either.

Was nice to meet Col Feik, and spend several minutes talking with Gen Courter (we go back about 20 years) and Lt Col Kothari (we were in the same group as cadets, BITD).  Good speech from the MI A-TAG(Air), heard about some possible new missions working with them.

Seminars and breakout sessions were the usual.  Didn't attend a one of them, other than the two general assemblies.  The highlight of the weekend was networking and talking to my many friends in the wing.

Ha, it took me half the day to just sort, crop and color correct them and get them uploaded all while I was hounded by members to get them posted. ;-)
