Lieutenant General Venables... There are few men who, in the service of His Majesty, can offer all that you have offered: undying dedication, perseverance, steadfast loyalty to Crown and Country, and valiant integrity and character. Thank you for your service, and may you have a sound retirement.

-- Vice Chancellor Jeremiah A. Garland of Great Britain, MP
