	Honorary Member Mitch Every time we go to EMR we could hear the wonderful tones of Mitch, as she called out the times until the next insertion, reminded a player to keep the googles on and cover up that barrel. A member of Canadian Justice, she is also one of the best refs at EMR. She has always made all players feel welcome and part of the "EMR Family". Over the past couple of years we had grown close with Mitch and after a quick discussion it was decided to bring her into the Militia fold. Honorary Member Jay At the Red Dawn 5 game, Jay was presented with a honorary membership in the Maltese Militia. Jay has been a big part in our team getting to where it is today. He has also done a great deal for Paintball in Western MA. Honorary Member Greg At the Queen Anne's Revenge event, Greg was presented with a honorary membership in the Maltese Militia. Greg has been very helpful to our team and to paintball in the area.
