CPTJG Garret Bitker, HMS Merlin, bartender extraordinaire, and a shining exemplar of volunteer service to the organization. He attends this major event for the express purpose of volunteering all weekend, and he delivers.

INM2 Sophia Bull, HMS Valkyrie, for stepping in at the last minute to cover galley duties, and cheerfully working and astounding amount of hours behind the curtain, and watching out for her fellow members.

CPTSG Brian Horton, HMS Intrepid, is cited as "the epitome of volunteering, service, leadership, and an excellent example of how to look out for each other over this four day event." Additionally, his wiring and repair expertise and extensive continued hard work are vital to keeping the Bridge Simulator flying.

CDR Jeremy Kittleson, HMS Merlin, was everywhere, volunteering a stunning number of hours in all aspects of the operations, and stepping up to cover last minute staff shortages.

ENS Grace Luberda, HMS Merlin, brings great positive energy to TRMN party room operations, and is recognized for her service, exceptional both in quality and quantity.

My personal thanks to ALL of the TRMN personnel who work to make these operations a success!

The Tradition Lives!
