Today, its my great pleasure to announce that Lt. Simon Young, Callsign Hapy, has earned the Order Lone Star and Fifth Order of Valour for mapping, on his own recognizance, and on his first deployment out of Toledo Locale, three hundred twenty six jump holes, which link together one hundred eight systems inside the Sirius Sector. This he has done in the space of just under two months, while maintaining his standard directive and attending to duties as a Lieutenant in the 42nd Order Rangers.
Right, Ladies and Gentlemen. Effective retroactively, due to certain changes in the structure of the New Order emerging out of the recent mess, you are all awarded the rank of Commander. I, myself, am a Colonel. Between the two is the rank of Captain. This change does not change our relative positions in the Order at large, it maintains them. Moreover, we are still an autonomous unit.
