Home from IC 2010… Bob got a Lifetime Membership!

Only one person may be awarded this honor per year and, according to STARFLEET, will have shown achievement well beyond their last promotion and in their work have made a lasting contribution to all of STARFLEET. Bob certainly fit this criteria, and Fleet Admiral Sal Lizard presented Bob this great honor during this evening’s IC Banquet.

As Bob was “exiled” from the room so we could talk about him behind his back, er, I mean discuss and vote on this issue, I had the unique honor of being able to motion for and vote for my friend of almost 20 years being given this great award. Having unanimously passed the AB, Bob joins many of STARFLEET’s most valuable officers in this auspicious group. Many congrats to him.

Congrats also go to Admiral Beryl Washington of the USS Sovereign for winning the Starfleet Flag Officer of the Year award for 2009. This award also was presented at the 2010 IC in Oklahoma. Congrats to her as well.
