What is your most awesome achievement or proudest moment, RE: something you were responsible for?

Hi folks,

My proudest moment was when I realised that my very detailed email, sent to Neil Oliver of GB News here in the UK, triggered a firestorm of debate & discussion here in the UK regarding the dangers of the upcoming Pandemic Treaty & IHR regulation amendments at the behest of the World Health Organisation, initiated on Neil Oliver's political discussion show exactly one week after I sent in that email.

In the email I went into all the details of how the WHO was trying to sneak through these amendments & the treaty itself by stealth, the way they attempted to ban nations from discussion of the salient facts prior to the adoption date, and several additional points which ended up being discussed at length by GB News, repeatedly over the weeks & months that followed. This literally then forced the issue into the national spotlight, ensuring that other media companies picked it up & ran with the story - ultimately causing the Conservative government to bow to public pressure, announcing that they would have no part in the Pandemic Treaty that had been proposed by the WHO. Several other nations followed Britain's lead.

So I will remember that incident for the rest of my days, and will proudly tell the grandchildren how I saved Great Britain in its (most recent) darkest hour..!!

Please contribute your own coolest moments of achievement... I look forward to reading them!

Kind Regards,



FITO.

For me it was shooting my first solo instrument approach and landing at MCO (Orlando International Airport). That was the culmination of years of training and practice. Nothing has come close to that since.

Nice, good on you!

I would love to be able to fly, but unfortunately health prevents me from learning these days.

Keep 'em coming ATS!

Congrats! My brother is getting ready for his. It will be at ROC.

My greatest accomplishment lately, has been getting through the last 10 days without killing anyone. Figuratively.

I hate idiots.

I completely understand that!

Cheers!

I killed a black widow spider by biting it once.

When I became a career fireman for the 12th largest city in the United States.

I got on in 2000, there were over 2,000 people take the test and they hired 26. How I pulled that off I’ll never know but I’m very grateful to the lord above for it.

I don’t talk about it much on here because the anonymous nature of the site, but I’ve seen and done things the younger version of me wouldve never believed. Haha. I was recently in a commercial, I’ve been in magazines, newspapers, textbooks, and been on some of the craziest scenes you could ever imagine, but like I said I’m very grateful to be on such a great department. The citizens are really good to us and in turn we work hard for them. 25+ years now and still learning. Lol

I’m usually on here when I’m at the station in down time goofing off. I like it here too. Lol

PS- good work on busting the story open. Yall sure needed that.

I love Neil Oliver - kudos to you for getting his attention pointed in the WHO direction!!

I would so love for him to do a brief, engaging video on the Shroud of Turin! Neil being an archaeologist and having that lovely Scottish accent would make for a video that 'believers' could show their "doubting Thomas" families...

Dr. John Campbell has a detailed 'Shroud' video, but it's so 'dry' that only people with an appreciation of his work would have the patience to watch.

I don't have any "awesome" achievements, but here's something kinda cool:

In my backyard, I have a 60 foot oak tree that I grew from an acorn that had sprouted in one of my flower pots...A friend kept wanting to pull the sprout up (like it was a weed), but I wouldn't let her -
- when it got to be about a foot in height, I planted it in a bare spot in the yard, and 15 years later it has become a tall, stately, & beautiful oak tree!
