Edict 32:
Why stop at two?
STF’s most valuable asset is its members. Some members are always in high demand. Some COs will make room on a ship for certain members to roster a character. Others names come to mind when a GM is needed. One of those names is Deanne Ashton.
DD was my first XO. Not my first XO when I made CO… the XO of my first posting, the USS Futura (now Revelation) in Fleet 5 (now Fleet 6). She was also a member of my second ship, the USS Titania (now Endeavor) in Fleet 5 (still Fleet 5). :)
During my 3 1/2 years in STF, DD has served in many positions. She’s been member, DH, XO, CO, GM, and cabinet member. Sure, she’s resigned a time or two or… nevermind. We try not to hold that against her. <grin>
In all seriousness, DD has done a lot for this club. Not always in the spotlight, but she’s been there nonetheless.
Several weeks or so back, I made a few promotions and said I wouldn’t make any more. I lied. So did Bill Clinton, and nothing bad happened to him. And I wasn’t even under oath at the time. <grin>
Therefore, I am proud to bestow the rank of Commodore upon Deanne Ashton. Congratulations Commodore.
