Were we expecting these invitations, I forget?

[jimdigris]

My unit didn't get any invitations.  Of course, this would be a good time for Cesar to show up. :o

[eilidhdawn]

Expecting them, no

The invitations went out to only the Commanding and Executive Officers of Chiji no Chian Butai {Governors Security Force} for themselves and a single guest.

the choice of guest is open to multiple alternatives


there will be a very high level of security at the event, no bodyguards, no firearms or explosives, no photos

[shadhawk]

My unit didn't get any invitations.  Of course, this would be a good time for Cesar to show up. :o

Yes it would be. This it is a very obvious thing to do. When do i do obvious  ;)

[jimdigris]

So, he'll be showing up the day after when everyone is recovering from the hangover?

[ObnoxiousTwerp]

Well, he DOES need to have some idea when the parties are taking place, and that the merc commanders will be invited...

Thanks, Dawn, as usual your background is wonderful; and I loved the paparazzi article   :)

Nejiro Public Radio
3067 December 6

In a special session of Parliament, a supplemental appropriation bill was successfully passed after only a week of negotiations, for the amount of 500 million Ryu to augment the defense budget to improve the equipment and personnel of both the Nejiro Militia and the Ichizoku no Minpei. Also passed as part of the bill, is a temporary increase to the funds the Ichizoku are required, by the Founders Agreement, to provide from their coffers to outfit and train their militias. The bill will raise this percentage by another two percent for at least the next two years. The Governor's militia audit has so far only investigated five Ichizoku no Minpei, and only two were up to the standards set forth in the Founders Agreement, none were up to modern standards of warfare. In reaction the Governor has asked for the assistance of the Civil Service Ministry to audit the books of all Ichizoku that do not meet the standards set forth in the Founders Agreement, and a series of fines have been set for those not in compliance. The Governor has also requested an increase in production from the entire defense industry of an additional 25-75% output. The Strategic Defense Institute declined our request on the specifics of the audit and the compliance of the individual Ichizoku, and only replied a report would be published at the conclusion of their efforts.
