Please be informed Roy Rodriguez will be stepping down from the MD88 ACP position. Roy, one of only a few 3-digit DVA members, has been here for quite a long time and served as ACP for several programs over the last few years. Roy is taking advantage of a real life job opportunity that will take him away from DVA for a while. We will miss Roy's level headedness that brought the rest of us crazies down to earth. We wish Roy all the best with his paying job - well, it pays better than we do. smile

Please join me in thanking Roy for his time on staff.
