| I think that's the french term, so keeping it chef de mission is correct.
Damn! Rebecca Ward is still a cadet!

| I hope he cooks well.
I wonder who ends up being the JWET 4th. It's good to see such a good cadre (especially the excellent armorers) as well. | |

Dave | I know that. My point was that it said Chef of Mission... the two languages were amalgamated... it has since been fixed to say Chef de Mission, which I have less exception to (except for the fact that everyone else's title is in English... why is this position special and all franc-ified?... but that's neither here nor there).

| Probably because it's only role is to speak in French at high volumes at organizers who have screwed some US fencer without being as accountable as the team captain. | |

| Sam doesn't have to raise his voice to shout down someone. He's a lawyer and knows how to lawyer.
