Isaac Henshaw: Hero of the People

One thing that never ceases to amaze us is how willing you, the people, are to sacrifice comforts for the Cause. Many of you struggle daily against the proliferation of brads and some even stand up directly to the Company. Despite improvements in security, the Company is occasionally able to punish our loyal supporters.

One such supporter is Issac Henshaw. Until recently he had been our main intelligence contact into the brad industry in the Mediterranean, but when the traitor "Viktor" turned on us he outed Issac and his family. Because of the quick pace of events in the case of "Viktor" we did not have enough time to prevent Issac from being abducted and tortured by the Brad Guys. We were, fortunately, able to intervene in time to save his wife and children, and we got Issac out as quickly as we could. Since then Isaac has been recovering from his ill-treatment.

After being captured, Isaac was taken to a secret facility in Romania where the Brad Guys perfected the art of the knee-grab torture. Issac assures us that, although many of us have reported seeing a form of it used by unscrupulous brad-pushers all over the world, we have never seen it so expertly performed. Issac reports that the torture facility recruits knee-grabbers from all over the world and trains them in the art of inflicting pain in a seemingly friendly grab of their neighbor's knee.

If you see anyone practicing the knee-grab torture, please report it immediately to your local GNU Public Torture Prevention office. The more information we have, the more quickly we can eliminate this pernicious evil from among us.

For his service in our cause and his endurance of undeserved torture, we are pleased to award Isaac the honor of Hero of the People. Congratulations, Isaac! The GNU Public Dictatorship is nothing if not proud of its heroes.
