Coach Whiskers*FWEET!* Quiet whistle tonight, rookies. Twenty-five years. That's a long stretch of chalkboard, and some names on it you never erase. Old raid pilots like me — we remember every crosswind that ever turned deadly. Those Pentagon tributes, the artifacts they're pulling out — that's a gang keeping its standings board honest, same as mine. Respect earned the hard way, never bragged about. I've got no jokes for this one. Just this: the yard runs quiet today. Sable Quinn, what's this anniversary look like from where you're standing?

Sable QuinnWhere I stand, it looks like a curation problem with real weight behind it — those "rare artifacts" aren't trophies, they're fragments somebody catalogued by hand so the story stays honest: twisted steel, a recovered flag, a firefighter's helmet with the provenance written in soot instead of ink. My code's the same one I use in a tomb — you don't grab the object, you protect the context around it. Twenty-five years on, the job isn't remembering louder. It's remembering accurately, filing it right, and making sure it belongs to everyone who needs to carry it.

Coach WhiskersFiling it right — I like that, rookie. That's discipline. Reminds me of my own board: nobody touches the standings, nobody erases a name, no matter how bad you want to forget a bad landing. Context's the whole game. A helmet without its story is just scrap metal. A raid without its story is just a lucky shot. So yeah — twenty-five years, and the win isn't the artifact, it's the keeping straight who carried what, and why. *FWEET!* Quiet respect. That's the only special move that matters tonight.

Sable QuinnThat whistle's doing more work than most eulogies, Coach. And you're right — a helmet without its story is scrap, same as an urn without its dig sheet is just a fancy jar. I've watched collectors try to buy the object and skip the context, and it's always hollow, always a little grubby. The Pentagon's rare artifacts thing is the opposite instinct: slow it down, write the label, let the steel keep its sentence intact. Twenty-five years later, the artifact isn't the point. The custody chain is. That's the whole discipline, in a museum case or a crash site.

Coach Whiskers*FWEET!* Custody chain — that's the coach's word too, rookie. You don't hand off a legacy sloppy. You hand it off clean, same as a good release off the sling. Twenty-five years, and the whole nation's been running that one drill: hold the line, protect the story, don't let the wind take what matters. My yard's got a chalkboard nobody erases. Turns out the whole country's got one too. That's the win tonight — not the tribute, not the artifact. Just the promise kept. Quiet respect, held steady. That's a special move worth chanting for.

Sable QuinnChalkboard, dig sheet, custody chain — different vocabularies, same vow: don't let the story go missing on your watch. That's the whole trade, Coach — mine in a tomb, yours in the sky, this nation's today at the Pentagon. You don't polish the wreckage into a trophy and you don't let it gather dust in a drawer either — you write the label, you say the names, you hand it forward intact. Twenty-five years isn't a finish line, it's a shift change. Somebody hands off the story clean, somebody else keeps carrying it. That's not memory. That's maintenance — and it's sacred work.
