Goooood Morning!! Mike, next door just came back from a hunting trip and gave me a dressed out haunch and about 3 pounds of deer sausage (linked up with thyme and garlic). I'll slick up the haunch and make a serious sauerbraten. In the meantime, deer sausage and mashed potatoes and roast asparagus or roast brussel sprouts, with an arugula salad ... life is good and having good friends makes it better.

Deer hunting this time of year? Poached?

Anyway.

Good morning all.

Hey NoDak-

We're going to get a few days of thaw here before too long. The Red River up yonder is likely to swell and come close to flooding its banks. Like it did last year. And the year before. Try not to be so surprised and goofy about it in Fargo this year, will ya?

Sigh ... have to do some evening work.

Constructing an Brigade estimate exam for my poor captains ... now, what sort of (almost) untenable position do I want to put them into?

Now that would be really evil, especially since the brigade is deployed in the northern parts of Sweden

ETA; If I put up Khota Baru as the target, I guess I would then have to change the deployment plan somewhat

Poor Alex took a hard shot square in the grill in his last game of the season Saturday night. Later in the game, he was knocked over and hit the side of his head on the goal post. He came away with a mild concussion. CT scan shows no bleeding or swelling, but 4 days later he still has a severe headache and some nausea. Went to a neurology specialist in concussions this morning and he is not worried about any damage, only trying to get Alex to feel better and recover from the headache. Most likely, the concussion has triggered a migraine as well. Dr pulled Alex out of school for the rest of the week and started a strong migraine treatment for several days. No physical activity, no computer, video games, television, or even texting on his phone. Alex is pretty miserable, but his mom and I are extremely relieved that there is no permanent damage.

Hmmm ...

SWEBDE is advancing along MSR A running from NARVIK to KIRUNA when the Bde S6 hands over a paper with the comment "New orders, Sir".

1/ board the transports of TF85, commanded by RADM Shintaro Hashimoto aboard the CL Sendai, for immediate transport to the invasion target Khota Bharu.
2/ Immediately start prepping for the invasion site.

The beach is estimated to be defended by one Indian Bde plus support troops.

No, I didn't ... but heaven knows I was tempted just to see the shell shocked expressions this would've caused
