Can’t wait to see everyone today to welcome the new year.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: The Department of Defense issued orders today to Col S. Clause, recalling him to active duty, with a report date of 24 Dec 2023. A reservist with 1,746 years of service, the airborne Soldier specializes in vertical delivery of high-value items. He is airborne and air assault qualified. He is also a Public Affairs Specialist. Also recalled were Lt-Col Dasher, CWO Dancer, MWO Prancer, Maj. Vixen, Maj Comet, Chaplain (Lt-Col) Cupid, Sgt Donner, and PO1 Blitzen, an Individual Augmentee from the Naval Reserve, assigned to the Army. 2Lt Rudolph is also authorized to report for duty; however, he must first successfully complete Land Nav training, which he has failed three times. Although the above troops are on orders for only 24 hours, it is anticipated they will submit a travel claim for 40,075 km at .32/km, using a POMV. Suitable Government transportation is not available. As a special operations unit, each member is granted a high level of uniform flexibility, as well as relaxed grooming standards. Per diem has been modified to include large quantities of hot cocoa and cookies. P.S. - Let's ALL remember the men and women of the CAF, as they serve in faraway lands during this Christmas Season. 🇨🇦🎄🎅 Thank You.

Our daily actions and our attitude have an impact on Culture Change. We must always be aware of bias and stay committed to learning.
