Office of the President on Starfleet Command

Edict #11
“Life is like a grapefruit… it’s sort of orangey-yellow and dimpled on the outside, wet and squidgy in the middle. It’s got pips inside, too. Oh, and some people have half a one for breakfast.”
As you all know, Symon Silvester recently stepped down as Governor of Oed V. After serving in that position for over three and a half years, to many of us, Sy and Oed V seemed to go hand-in-hand. Sy was appointed as Governor after one of his previous breaks from STF, and we can only hope that he will choose to come back in the future and give us a taste of his amazing creativity and leadership in another STF position. As I mentioned once before in this club, Sy’s departure has left very large (yet strangely bunny-shaped) boots to fill…
…which may be just the right size for a tribble to fit in. Russell Watt is one of our most creative role-players in the club, and an important leader in and out of the administration. He has served as the CO of two seperate ships, and has served in three different cabinet positions (not including his current MAC position and informal administrator of the Awards). Russ was formerly mentored by Sy, and is now a mentor to many of our newer members.
Russ has always been a strong crew member on any ship he has been part of, and has been awarded as STF’s most creative poster. Even if that has included Russ as an engineering cadet using a wooden club to smash a malfunctioning ship computer. (I told you I would always remind everyone about that! <EG>)
Russ has continued to be a major contributer, administrator, and leader of Oed V, and therefore, based on the recommendation of (Assistant) Fleet Six Command, Russell Watt is hereby appointed as Governor of Oed V.
Oh, and Russell Watt is also promoted to Fleet Captain.
Congratulations, Russ!
