Alrighty- it was my intention to let folks know whenever someone passed an exam or something new was happening in the VENA, but things picked up and that was harder and harder to do.  However, per my word, here's everything, that I can think to look up, we've really been up to since the last time I mentioned Casca's promotion a while back.  Note that throughout all of these days, the VENA-S e-mail account is checked and new members are sent welcome messages directing them to where they need to be.  Again, the reason we like to put these up is simply to let people know where they stand and to inform them of what's going on around 'em.  If you'd like to see what the VENA-S's goals are over the next couple of weeks, you can always visit the staff topic on the Naval Academy ComNet.  We'll try to update people when significant change is underway, though.  Hopefully the following will be sufficient:

Thank you to everyone who has been patient with me over the last couple of weeks, or rather, months- it's been interesting.  My job is to ensure that the VENA is well kept, but my absence has forced me to leave that job to those who are already busy enough as it is: Tomas and C-3PX2.  For their consistency and devotion to the VENA and our new recruits, not to mention their outstanding activity, I have promoted Tomas and C-3PX2 accordingly in our VENA ranks.  Furthermore, Tomas has been given the position of Training Executive Officer (TO).  This means that when I am not present, he literally becomes the life and will of the VENA- his word is the word of the entire staff; it is a great honor, but also a daring responsibility that I'm proud to say he willfully accepted, lol.  Congratulate them in whatever way you will if you see these two gentlemen; they've been the soul of the VENA as of late.  However, I'd also like to recognize those members who consistently welcome our new recruits- those members are actively involving themselves in the training process by making new recruits feel more welcome, and for that I am grateful and highly encourage others to do the same.

With those thoughts in mind, I would also like to announce the opening of one to two position on our staff that, most likely, will pertain to new recruit response and interaction, primarilly interaction on a run-on story.  If you're interested, drop me an application expressing your interest and qualifications.  Without any further ado- here's what we've managed to accomplish in the last couple of months...

Also, if you took the TE and received a certificate, make sure that it fits the current standards for TE certificates- lemme know if you have any questions concerning it.
