Congratulations on your new metal collection Mayor Simón, a very bright and colourful selection there. A word of caution though, do not wear them on the field of honour; our voltigeurs are expert shots and these would only bring your person to their deadly attention. No one wants to see the career of a promising officer cut short.

I am happy to celebrate your recognition with a small glass of vin rouge.
