Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is a great honor to introduce you to your new Captain. Rende Asam as played by Jennifer Ward. I know the Viking has been through some tough times, and we want her to succeed. I was impressed by her application and plans to bring the Viking to new heights and fulfill her glorious purpose, and that was also agreed upon by the presidential team.

I know she’s a fairly new ship after the demise of the old Viking, try to keep that hull looking nice and shiny.

Brian
