It is the ATTENDEE's responsibility to read all updates in the Operation Northern Wind forum.

Registration Fee: $110 ($90 for alumni of past Lion Claws series three-day Ops such as Lion Claws, Hac Bao, IRENE, Northern Wind, Night Scorpion and Bull Dog).

A non-refundable deposit of $40 is required at time of registration. This policy is to reduce 'professional register-ers' who simply wanted to holdup a slot for no reason.

This deposit is NONREFUNDABLE, NONTRANSFERABLE (unless it's due to a major disaster and the OP had to be rescheduled), and NONFORWARDABLE. In short, until your deposit is in, your NAME IS NOT ON THE LIST. This is to avoid deadbeats holding up space for no reason.

Balance payment due by July. 7, 2008.

Last day for D.O.R. (Drop On Request) is July 25, 2008. No refund after July 25, 2008!
