#4 – The Other Guys – anything with Will Ferrell really!
#5 – Archer
#6 – Community
#7 – The Notebook (Really? Must be Lt(N) Corbett and Haluszka)

dragons crawling on her seems to be of interest to some sailors…)

Other Issues
1. HLTA
• Who books it?
• Going home vs 3rd Location
• Finalizing the Plan
• Sometimes the best plans change – for
operational/safety reasons
2. Taxes
• Letter to be provided by REGINA to member and spouse
• You can file late without penalty

34. Her Majesty’s Canadian Ship REGINA
My Top Priorities • Safety and well-being of the Ship’s Company
• No change!
• Successful completion of our mission
• Mission commenced!
• Finalizing Port Visit Program and HLTA Plan
• Very Close – thanks for your patience!
