Creed sent the following report to TMN:
Hail Para!
I must share this sketch with your readers! I feel fortunate that I not only witnessed but was able to sketch an amazing event. Recently, I came out of the library just in time to help mop up the end of an orga invasion. I joined a group of exiles at the meadow, and we proceeded west and north to the snell west of the Orga Camp. It was busy but not unconquerable; the fighters quickly cleared the snell and began making fighter runs into OC.
The OC snell was very hot, with a lot of LDV as well. Several fighters had to be chained out to the waiting healers. But Matt . . . Matt made a heroic leap for the snell boundary with his last breath. The sketch shows where he landed. He has NOT been moved! That's how far Matt managed to leap across the snell border toward safety!
I've seen long-distance death leaps, but I've never seen anything like this one. :-)
Thanks for the inspiring leap, Matt!
