COT
I noted that I had been thinking about former Site Qs Wide Right and Doppler, and noted that I owed a lot to their support during my early days in F3. I noted to the PAX that I am working on being intentional with thanking those who have impacted me while I can, as time and circumstance may not allow it later.
We all stand on the shoulders of giants, including the 7 men who joined me at Mess Hall today. Thank you!
Aye-Oompa
