Nominated by: FA Licah Fox
Awarded by: FA Licah Fox
Reason for nomination: I wish to acknowledge Spokes' right hand man now, the man we all know as "Blaster", Rear Admiral Patrick Blastfire. As I look back at Blaster's record of service, dating back to 1997, I recall the work I did with him when I was Chief of Staff in 2004, and he was still RSXO. He did a great many things during that time that don't show up on an official service record, including sitting down and talking with many members over the proposed fleet restructuring, assisting with other projects in their infancy, and communicating with other clubs about possible competitions. While I cannot point to any one thing Blaster has done during his time here and say that it earns him such and such, I have the feeling deep down that the time and care he has given to this club over his lifetime rivals most other Admirals you could care to mention. For that reason, and for his near-two-year service as RSXO, it's my honor to award Blaster the Tatooine Suns - |//Oo| - ! Congratulations, Blaster, and may you have a happy retirement.
