Well the luck of the day is on me. I just found out that I have been officially appointed as Commanding Officer of Her Majesty's Canadian Ship BRANDON. I take command some time in early June.

Wore my Stillwater 16 oz wool green kilt, PC and a Donegal FLy Plaid out with my lady to celebrate. Had real Irish stew and jamieson's whiskey.

AH - LIFE'S GREAT AND SIMPLE DELIGHTS.
