Final leg for 18 months of training
14 years ago
Dear Princess Celestia
This week on Friday the 22nd of July I and the rest of my OCS Class will be jumping on a plane and heading off to Ft Lewis, WA for the final phase of Officer Candidate School. This is the last of our training and will not be as tough as the rest of the stuff we've done for the last year and a half.
I will return late in the evening on the August 6th and on Sunday the 7th, we'll be commissioned as Lieutenants in the IL Army National Guard. My first assignment will be to the 1744th Transportation Company in Crestwood, IL as a Platoon Leader.
Then four days later I'll be leaving for the Indy Fur Con in Indianapolis, IN. So expect to see a lot of Gold Bars myseriously appearing on my Fursuit, badges and what-not during that weekend as I show off my achievement.
Speaking about the IFC, it is not official yet, but I might be hosting two different panels at the Con. The person I've been working with trying to the event put together hasn't replied back yet with the final okay, but there is a strong chance that it should happen. So if you're going to IFC 2011 next month from August 12-14th; look out for these two panels:
Ungulates United
Hosted by Liedt
This is a social gathering for all who like the Ungulate species or Hoofed Mammals. Come, meet and have a friendly chat. Whether they are living creatures like horses, antelope, llama or whales; mythological creatures like minotaurs, unicorn or satyr or extinct species like the quagga or bluebuck. We will also have a short audio/video presentation regarding the Ungulates and discuss the recent popularity of Ponies and Bronies within the fandom.
Open Mic
Hosted by Liedt
Liedt is a traditional folk musician from the Joliet area near Chicago. He will be bringing his Furry Fandom Filk songs and Hoofer Humor to help encourage others to take the stage. Each performer will have up to six minutes to share whatever they want, poetry, songs, stories; all the world is their stage. There are no auditions; just sign up. Please limit the content of the performances to no greater then PG-13.
If you are comeing to the the IFC event, please feel free to drop into either or both of the panels. It will be nice to have a little furtopian support since these will be my first Furry Panels I've ever done. I'll even show off my new shiney Lieutenant's bars during the show if anyone asks to see them. I'll update this with the time and dates as I learn them.
