Mike was sitting back on the porch of the house, facing over the lake. A mug of bloodwine in one hand, but the surprising thing was...he was out of uniform. As he'd mention in the invitation, this was an informal gathering. Food, fun, and friends, and to try to show that, he wore civies. Shorts and a loose fitting button up shirt. For some, this was the first time they'd seen `Admiral Bremer` relax and just be `Mike Bremer`.

To his right was Janice, and she too was relaxing in civilian clothing. K`Temoc was to Mike's left, wearing a white t-shirt and shorts, drinking a bottled beer from Germany.

Mike looked out over the yard and saw several members of his crew already there. Greenwood and Gillo were talking and seemed to be getting along really well. Harrison was looking out over the lake. Andrews was just walked up. He hoped many of the new members would take him up on the offer. Highsmith, t`Khellian, O'Reily...it would be good for them to interact with some of the long-time members of the crew.

Mike took a deep breath, smelling the food being cooked close by. Southern style Bar-B-Q...pulled pork, ribs, and chicken. Burgers and steak were also being grilled, along with corn on the cob. Other dishes were dishes were already prepared, like Mac and Cheese, baked beans, green beans, and several types of fruit. Obviously the theme was, as Mike had said, a Southern style `backyard BBQ`. Even though most of his crew wasn't from the Southern United States area...or even from Earth in some cases, Mike had hoped everyone would be willing to try something new.

Mike looked over to his brother, "Did you get my message about Bryant Wright?"

"Yeah I did, I think he'll be a great training officer, won't take any slack off anyone." K`Temoc replied with a smile.

"Exactly. Having been an Non-Comm and Chief for his career, he'd going to make those trainees work. " Mike added. "That also means I have a new assignment for you. We're calling it `Special Operations`. Most missions will be classified top secret, need to know basis only. Small team incursion or investigation. We'll flush out the details once we're back on the Station."

K`Temoc nodded. "Sounds good."

Both men leaned back in their chairs again, taking a sip of their drinks. They waited for more of the crew to arrive, hopefully they would soon. Food would be ready soon...
