OK everyone, raise your glass and toast the new Commanding officer of the 505th PIR 82nd ABN for the 2009 Oklahoma D-Day event. Predator has been promoted to Colonel and will assume command effective immediately. Congratulations are in order. A well deserved promotion it truly is. In his short D-Day career, he has proven his worth in some tough assignments acting as Assistant team leader of a Spec Ops Team in '07, and XO of Omega Company 505th PIR in '08. To the members of RRT that attend in '09, your assignments will be posted soon. Lets give Predator our full support and make this an experience to remember.
CONGRATULATIONS COMMANDER!!

Thank you Predator and DeeQue. This is going to be an awesome year. And I must second what DeeQue said...I too am VERY PROUD of this team! We have come a long way in a short time.
That being said its time to get to work. We have a regiment to build and organize. More to come you can be assured of that.

Robinson Recon,
We need to extend another well deserved congratulations to the newest member of our team, Bulldog.
Bulldog's outstanding leadership abilities and warrior talents were finally recognized and rewarded this year. By order of the Commander, 82nd ABN, Bulldog was promoted to Colonel and appointed as Commander, 507th PIR, 82nd ABN, our sister Regiment for the D Day battle. Well done Bulldog. The bad news is that we won't have his talents on our team during D Day but we will as the 82nd ABN.
I think this speaks very well about the type of talent we are looking for and have on our team...to have 2 D Day Regimental Commanders and a Regimental XO on our team. Well that speaks for itself I think.
Well done Robinson Recon, keep up the good work!

Thank you for the kind words, but I am one of those that has to give credit to the team that earned me this appointment. They worked hard and trusted in our leadership to get them through the fun times. On another note, I am totally excited that you have taken over the 505th. I have created your title and set your account up on the 507th forums. Ghost, feel free to head over there and register. We are trying to gather all of the commanders there because it is secured as I will only allow access to the forums to people that I know. lol So if I don't know them, they won't get access. Again, thanks for the kinds words.
