My heartfelt congratulations to all of these fine, French officers. They are all honorable men and formidable opponents, who well deserve the honors that are being given them this day. :P :P :P

My thanks to LGA's Chief of Staff for publically recognizing their efforts. I think that is critically important from the officers in Army Command. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

And I find myself wondering why none of the three Coalition Army Commanders has bothered to make a post letting everyone know how the Coalition absolutely pasted the French Army in the Multi-Player Division of the 2012 SON Torunament to win the Army Bragging Rights of our club, despite my numerous reminders to them to do so. :oops: :oops: :oops:

Indeed, Congrats to these fine French Officers!!! All three of them have the cunning skill to quickly change battlefield outcomes in their favor.
On a more somber note, I must agree with Mark, where is the Allied representation for battlefield recognition in these boards?? It doesn't exist! I must say, it is pitiful....

On a happier note, the French Officers should be proud to be a part of such a active army & an amazing general Staff!! To Arms!!!

:)

Used to be there, but not enough volunteers to go around these days, unlike the French who have good numbers, so more volunteers.... :)

I personally don't think that it is a matter of the French numbers and their voluteers. I think it is simply the matter of one man on the French side. Al Kling works his butt off for LGA. There is not another French officer that even approaches what he does for that side of our club in terms of reliably, consistent productivity.

Mark,

I couldn't agree with you more!

Well done Al!

As much as you and I have had our disagreements in the past, you're sheer effort, time & commitment that you put into the French Army is absolutely exquisite!!!


Now, to only find someone with half the time and effort that you put into the French army that I could to put into the Prussian Army...

It's also somewhat unfortunate, that we haven't heard from the new Prussian Austrian Swedish Commmander since he's been appointed more than a mere few times...

I don't intend on stirring the pot here, merely an observation.

Yes Al does carry the lions share Mark. He deserves the credit, I wasn't implying that he didn't. I thought they had more going on, I am not privy to how they operate, that's all. Was simply going off of the fact that I see a fair amount of senior French officers engaging in the forums. :mrgreen: But historically in the Club the French enjoyed more volunteers than the Coalition did, so I guess I was still under that assumption.

Gary - Everyone is all just volunteers and we do what we can for the Club. I am sure someone will come along at some point.

But let's stop robbing the topic here.

Congarts Jeff, Cezary & Tim!
