Greetings fellow students,

With full approval from our dear teacher, Marina. I would like to announce a new assistant TA Capman911 (aka Mike, and aka Moose and Squirrel). Mike has had been doing a lot of behind the scenes work helping me out with HFW. He has been an outstanding door greeter to new visitors at HTW.

Mike is a retired Captain for the Fayetteville Fire Department. The man to the right of the first photo is his son Michael who is on Eastover Fire department I myself have fought fires in Navy simulators and know a bit about what Mike does. The idea of going into a strange burring building to put out the flames and rescue people and property makes one think how risky that kind of job is. It takes a brave individual to risk his own life to save others. Mike is a modern day hero.

We are still accepting applicants for TAs, so don’t give up. Keep visiting and contributing to HTW. Oh and yes I’m still a TA.

Captain Jack
LTA

    Congratulations Capman….

    Cap’nJack — not to pick nits or anything, but you might want to proof read your blurb up there. “Mike has had been…” and what’s a “burring building?”

    Marina is going to bring me on as a consultant and there are going to have to be some changes made…… :grin:

    WHat’s HTW? At first I thought it was a typo of HFW, but now it seems it is pretty consistently used.

    When Raymond Burr moved into an historic building (the building had iron sides instead of brick) that had a plaque reading “Aaron Burr lived here,” the building was said to be “burring.” Personally, I bristle at the thought of a burring building. It’s bad enough running into burrs out in the field.

    It’s a test for the new TA to proofread the posts. Still not sure what HTW is.
