Thank you to all active-duty OCs and MECEPs, as well as the staff for your military service. The battalion did a great job at the Veteran's Day Ceremony today and represented the Navy and Marine Corps well. A big thanks to MIDN Kleven for coordinating the formation. Coming up, we have the bi-annual PFA on the morning of Wednesday 14NOV, sailing will resume on Saturday morning 17NOV, and brag sheets are due next Wednesday 21NOV. It's a week and a half until Thanksgiving! Keep hitting the books hard until the break!

Birthday Ball was huge success at the Lynwood Convention Center this weekend. Hopefully everyone enjoyed themselves in a great celebration of the birthday of the Navy and Marine Corps. Veteran's Day is this weekend, and the ROTC Veteran's Day Ceremony will be held on November 11th. For everyone involved, there is a practice for the ceremony, on the morning of the 8th, to make sure everything runs smoothly. Also, the PFA is right around the corner (Nov. 14th). Have a great week, study hard, and take care of your bodies!

Happy Halloween Husky Battalion! The Navy and Marine Corps Birthday Ball is this Friday, November 2nd at the Lynnwood Convention Center. Make sure you leave early enough to make it to the ceremony on time, as Seattle traffic on Friday can be problematic. The weekend after the Birthday Ball is Veteran's Day, so don't forget about the ceremony if you are supposed to participate in the formation. Keep working hard in classes and studying for those midterms!

Happy week five Husky Battalion! We are already about half way through the quarter and everyone is busy with midterms and upcoming battalion events. Birthday Ball on November 2nd, hosted at the Lynwood Convention Center, is fast approaching. Be sure to purchase your tickets and sign up in the wardroom for seating assignments and transportation. Picture order forms have also been emailed out, be sure to fill out the order form and bring a check with you to the ball if you want photographs to remember the occasion.

Welcome back to the Husky Battalion! After the driest summer Seattle has had in years, it is time to hit the books hard for Autumn Quarter 2012.
