THANK YOU

As with any project of this magnitude, it's almost impossible to thank everyone that was so instrumental in making it all come together.

A special and heartfelt thank you to Major Blake McNaughton for taking such good care of two very pesky photographers. You graciously welcomed us into your home both personally and professionally we can't thank you enough.

Thank you to Lt(N) Keil Kodama for making sure we always had what we needed, even while you were in the middle of 1,000 other things at the same time, and to Captain Sabrina Martellino for her invaluable assistance.

HUGE thank you to LCDR Wes Jones, National SAREX Director and Captain Ian Pace, Operations Officer, for making sure the entire exercise ran smoothly and (at least from our vantage point) seamlessly. You treated us as members of the team and we'll never forget that.

Thank you to Capt Eric Germain for going above and beyond (literally) to help get 'Drone 1' in the air and create logistical magic whenever we needed it.
