Hi all,

A couple of family snaps.

Last Thursday was the day 544 navy recruits swore their 
oath to the flag in Stralsund - and our son (second to 
the right of the flagstaff) was selected to be one of 
the six members of the "Flaggenabordnung" (flag commando?).

- "Chatting" to the PM of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern


This year will probably see the end of national service 
in Germany, so our son may be one of the last to be 
called up. But Florian already loves life in the navy 
and will almost certainly be signing up to make a 
career of it and is hoping to be accepted for officer 
training when his basic training is over.

Cheers
Douglas
