Thanks for the reassurance on sanctuary, Kikuchiyo...it's what we certainly expect from the LPRP.
I was thinking about asking for the amendment about 5 months out from the end of my 3 yr orders, which would put me 11 months from my 20 yr date. I had to break ties with my reserve unit to do this gig and don't intend to try and go back--just simply retire. Sound reasonable to you?
