The Miramar First Anniversary Ball - 01/08/2017

Celebrating one year of Miramar. The Main Hall honored with Navy white. 01/08/2017.

It was our privilege to welcome our fellow officers, their families and friends for a celebration of the first twelve months of official activity of Naval Air Station Miramar. Part of Third Fleet Command, United States Navy Second Life, N.A.S.M. was built on an isolated island on January 1st, 2016, for the purpose of showing the owner and managers of Tuarua Fiji exactly what it would look like if the chance of acquiring a region in that amazing 80 sim large estate should come. They liked what they saw and approved the Station for transfer to Tuarua Fiji. Soon after that the chance arrived. Officially inaugurated as a U.S.N.S.L. Naval Air Station on January 8th, 2016, the installation was transferred brick by brick to Du Sud Isle, where it now stands, on the 13th day of that same month.

Doing the honors for Miramar were CDR. Asra Kron, CDR. Vickster Kuhn, LCDR. An Rainbow, LT. Jenny Kaz, escorted by Mr. Diamon Star, ENS. Declan O'Mara, escorting his fiancée Ms. Sikara Denver, and MCPO. Margot Fenring.

Among our guests for the formal occasion, RADM. Isaac Harcassle and his wife LCDR. Daniella Harcassle, along with the 6 months old Harcassle twins in her womb, and their lovely little daughter Maggie, CAPT. Sidney Pobieski, CDR. Connie Mistwalker, LCDR. Elspeth Westminster, escorting Ms. Warda PinkKarma, LCDR. Alice Illios, LCDR. Alia Khashmal, Director Mac Gaelyth and his wife Mrs. Mikie Gaelyth and retired Royal Navy, now Merchant Navy CAPT. Mit Zoobe, escorting Ms. Kitty Umarov.

The reception began as scheduled at 13:30 SLT sharp, and the opening dance by CDR. Kron and her Executive Officer, LCDR. An Raibow was quickly followed by other couples to get the Ball started. There was then a fly by to the North of the main building where the Ball was held, performed by three aircraft from resident squadrons, and the celebrations continued for about four hours, after which the most resilient (and free of obligation) guests eased the party down for another two.
