Congratulations on your recognition Field Marshal.

To be granted three such medals in one day is quite astonishing.

At this rate you may have to hire someone to wear them for you!

I salute your achievement, Mike.

I feel personally responsible for some of this.

Congratulations sir, and although my rum rations come from the bottom of the barrel, you are welcome to take your fill.

Just as you have taken some well earned victories!
