Ship's Meeting, Awards Presentations, and Anniversary Party Bobo China, Grapevine, TX 1600 Hours On 01 OCT 1992 (Stardate 9210.01), STARFLEET commissioned a new chapter in Fort Worth, Texas. This chapter was called the USS Comanche, a Galaxy-class starship. Over the last 25 years, we've had many changes of command, a couple of changes of ship class, and a couple of changes of ship's name, but here we are: The USS Sea Tiger, NCC-2009, proudly sailing into the Undiscovered Country. The crew got together this month at a different-than-normal place: Bobo China, a great Chinese restaurant in Grapevine, Tx. Present were Rear Admiral Joy Flynt, Brigadier General Byron Flynt, Commodore Tank Clark, Commander Tracy Clark, and Lieutenant Colonel Roon Marchant. The Order of Sheldon's Spot (awarded to each member of the ship who, since the last October awards presentation, has attended every single general meeting of the ship) was awarded to Master Chief Petty Officer Alan Goulet, Rear Admiral Liz Goulet, Commander Tracy Clark, and Commodore Tank Clark. As the Sea Tiger had no Landing Parties since Oct 2016, the Landing Party Animal (awarded to each member of the ship who, since the last October awards presentation, has attended every single Landing Party) and the Order of the Constant Star (awarded to each member of the ship, who, since the last October awards presentation, has attended both every single general meeting of the ship AND every single Landing Party. This amount of dedication to the USS Sea Tiger is noteworthy) were not awarded. The Currently Unnamed Smarty-Pants Award (awarded to the member with the most completed Academy/SFMC-A courses in the calendar year) went to Commodore Tank Clark with only 26. Second place went to Rear Admiral Liz Goulet, with 13. The Member of the Year (awarded for tireless service to, and promotion of, the USS Sea Tiger. To be eligible, the nominee must have (at least) current Local membership (ship’s dues paid), and attendance at (at least) ¾ of the ship’s meetings during the 12-month period the award recognizes) was awarded posthumously to CWO4 Glen Wilkerson. There were also a slew of "Most Likely To" awards: Marchant, Roon -- Most likely to replace Engineering’s computer system with Apple IIc’s Crouch, Cynthia --Most likely to do an autopsy on a species that looks dead when it isn't Clark, Tracy -- Most likely to remove an appendix and replace it with a banana Clark, Thomas -- Most likely to run around the ship wearing nothing but lederhosen and cat’s ears Mason, Nick -- Most likely to use a personal cloaking device Chaffin, Karen -- Most likely to replace the ship's Library Computer with a card file organized by the Dewey Decimal System Goulet, Alan -- Most likely to organize an Enlisted Uprising Goulet, Elizabeth -- Most likely to scream if Tank stopped coming to meetings Goulet, Michelle -- Most likely to pretend her portable gaming system is a tricorder Cross, Michael -- Most likely to replace his STARFLEET communicator with a big red land-line telephone on a silver tray Cornatzer, Scott -- Most likely to confuse "3 PM" and "3:30 PM" Flynt, Byron -- Most likely to give Fix-A-Flat and condoms as part of a Ferengi Gift Exchange Flynt, Joy -- Most likely to volunteer her hubby for a task Barnett, Katlyn -- Most likely to be found hiding in a closet in the Science labs Pegues, Amy -- Most likely to die of an overdose of "shmoozing" Brulotte, Perry -- Most likely to call his wife “Doctor” In accordance with Article VI, Section 6.03(a), Byron Flynt has volunteered for the Open position of Red Division Leader. If there are no other volunteers by the end of the next Ship's Meeting, Byron will be appointed Red Division Leader, and will serve out the remainder of the term. Regular Division Elections will be held in April 2020. In accordance with Article VI, Section 6.03(a), Joy Flynt has volunteered for the Open position of Gold Division Leader. If there are no other volunteers by the end of the next Ship's Meeting, Joy will be appointed Gold Division Leader, and will serve out the remainder of the term.
