AREA 52 features two great new articles this issue, all of which can be viewed from our front page, or via the Article Archive, which will allow you to see a lot of the past articles featured on previous incarnations of the AREA.  Featured in this edition are:

Also featured is a new toon, and several being created over the New Year's Holiday to provide you with more thought-provoking function into how you live, not only in your Fleet lives, but in life in general.  I also want to remind everyone that if you have a great idea for a cartoon, but just don't have the drawing talent, we would be happy to compose that for you!  Just contact us with the basic outline of what you're thinking and we'll do our best to emulate that idea for you.

Along with all of the new content, are all of the great resources of the AREA, which provide every member and chapter with different activities and outlets for them to make their opinions known, in a forum that anyone can access in one way or another. That's what the AREA 52 WWWSite is all about.

We are also looking for additional writers to enhance the staff of writers that we already have, so feel free to contact us if you are interested.  We will be posting the criteria again shortly to the website, and would be happy to answer any questions that you might have about being able to provide content for AREA 52.

I hope that the AREA provides you with at least as much joy as it does for me to create it, and as always, my mailbox is open!
