*Ministerial Rodent Noises*​
The New Year saw several records and changes for TNP and the North Pacific Army (NPA). Perhaps the greatest achievement of the NPA in the last term was the detagging of over 200 regions, a record for the NPA in a single term. During this final push into the new year, Captain Zazumo was also able achieve his 100 mission completion ribbon. Following these accomplishments, Gladio, the six-term Minister of Defence won the election to become Delegate of the North Pacific.

Captain Malphe, a long time member of the NPA and avid rodent was chosen for the honour of succeeding Gladio as Minister of Defence. Malphe accepted this enormous responsibility, and assumed the duties of the Minister of Defence and General of the North Pacific Army. General Malphe is a veteran of over 50 campaigns, stretching from the raid upon The Holy Historian Confederation, to the most recent defence of the region of Christmas. The opening address of the New Minister of Defense is available here.

The first major mission for the NPA of the new year is the Defense of The North Pacific while in a state of Delegacy transition. During this time the NPA is recalled to TNP in order to add endorsements to the delegate elect.

In order to keep their skills sharp the NPA has taken part in detagging operations during the transition with the permission of the new delegate. As a capstone for the month, the NPA conducted a tag-raid of Warzone Australia, and conducted a three team operation resulting in the detagging of 18 regions. A part of the 18 detag op also served as the officer test for BMWSurfer, who was promoted to Lieutenant

Thank you to all members of the North Pacific Army involved in the above operations. Hail The North Pacific! Hail the NPA!
 
Personal nitpicks time!

I'd change 'De-taging' to 'detagging' and 'a long time member of the NPA, and avid rodent' to 'a long time member of the NPA and avid rodent,'.

I'd also personally change 'Perhaps the greatest achievement of the NPA in the last term was the De-taging of over 200 regions. A record for the NPA in a single term.' to 'Perhaps the greatest achievement of the NPA in the last term was the detagging of over 200 regions, a record for the NPA in a single term.' Just looked kinda weird with the full stop there.

'In order to keep their skills sharp the NPA has taken part in De-tag operations in between the start of the update, and the update of TNP' isn't entirely accurate, the NPA in those few operations missed TNP's update and brought our WAs back at the end of each OP, with the permission of Gladio.

Great article though! I feel kind of bad for not joining Comms sooner for the NPA bulletins.
 
Solid article.

I've made some minor changes below. I'd like to suggest that the summary of operations be done in table form. This will help to minimise the length of the article (in terms of size) and TNL overall. I think it is neater and still conveys the relevant information nicely. Up to Kasch if he prefers this or not.
