The first recruit showed up about an hour early. He was advised to go down to the Tun Tavern and standby for a little bit. The second recruit showed up a bit later and they weren't quite ready for him to sign up either, so he was told to go down to Tun's and find the other guy. When he did so he struck up a conversation with the first recruit.

The second recruit asked 'Been here very long'. The first recruit said ' Well..., let me tell you about the old Corp'

That said, Happy Birthday to the Corp. Thank You one and all.
