Congrats Como Marschall

For those that have not heard the news, our very own D1SR Commodore - Como Marschall, was elected by the NEXCOM at the recent NACON to the position of DNACO (Deputy National Commodore) Atlantic Area East!

This a very prestigious position and will entail a national level leadership role in Operations/RBS.  Como Marschall prevailed over a very distinguished field of candidates including current & past District Commodores from throughout Atlantic Area.  The voting was tense and came down to a final vote between Como Marschall and the current D7 Commodore. 

I am personally extremely proud of not just Hal for his election but his willingness to continue to serve our interests and those of the entire Auxiliary on a National level (not too sure Maura will be as happy).  Hal continues to pave the way for D1SR leadership moving 'up the chain' and it is a testament to all of your hard work and dedication that our Commodore was chosen to hold this very important post.  His term begins 1 October but he will of course continue to lead D1SR until he is relieved on 1 Jan 2013
by our next elected D1SR Commodore.

Please ensure widest dissemination through the chain of leadership-

BZ Como Marschall & D1SR Auxiliary!!
