Silent Hunter becomes Argos CO

Appointment #48

This is a sad day for me on a personal note simply because of how much fun Samantha and I have had on the Argos. However, Samantha's life as it stands now doesn't give her the time she needs to come onto SGU to post as she would like. So unfortunately, Samantha has communicated to me and the rest of the MC that she will have to step down from her position as CO of the Argos.

We've known about this for some time, has had several other people within SGU. Almost immediately we began looking for someone to pick up the reigns of the ship. After discussing the situation, the members of Military Command, including Samantha, threw our support behind one individual.

He's been in SGU with us for a significant amount of time, helping out various sim areas and people along the way. Anna, his current TL, sings his praise with a loud song and gave us the thumbs up before we even had a chance to ask her. This is hardly surprising because we have found that Anna does very well with training her XO's in the art of taking the reigns of their own command.

As such, it is a pleasure and an honor to take away yet another one of her XOs to give him the reigns of the Argos. Effective immediately, Silent Hunter will be promoted to the rank of Major and will assume command of the Argos. With his promotion he will receive all the rights and privileges that comes with the rank.

Good luck Silent and congratulations!
