This is Fleet Admiral Nathaniel Davies. A new set of pay-grade adjustments have been created, effective immediately:
Commander Reginald Lewis will now be found as a Captain within the Liberty Navy. His lengthy term of service within the Navy and his repeated efforts to serve to the best of his ability have not gone unnoticed, and it is to that end that, along with this promotion, he is to be officially recognized as the Navy's newest Commodore. He will no doubt continue to serve the Navy as one of our finest officers.
Vice Admiral Michael Morse returns after a period of medical leave at the pay grade of Captain. He will remain unassigned in division focus for the time being, but serve as an advisor to Captain Nicole Hayes and the ESRD Directorate.
Ensign Christopher Rowe is hereby promoted to the rating of Lieutenant. You show a lot of promise, Lieutenant. I trust that you will continue to show the utmost prowess in undertaking your duties.
Captain Marisa Marshall has been temporarily shifted to training duty with the Third Fleet of the Liberty Navy. It is unknown when she will return, but her expertise will no doubt be used to the fullest effect with their units.
Captain Sam Underwood has chosen to take a period of extended leave aboard Planet Los Angeles, citing personal family concerns. We wish him the best of luck and eagerly await his return.
Commander William Jensen has chosen to retire from the Navy after an extensive and sizable career. We are all grateful for his service, and wish him the best of luck in the next chapter of his life.
As you can tell, folks, there are plenty of slots on the high end of the food chain that need dependable, responsible officers to fill. I'll be watching like a hawk to find the best of the best - if you do well and show me your colors, you might find yourselves on this list the next cycle around. I'm counting on you, boys.
