Their charter city is [[wikipedia:Avon, Ohio|Avon, Ohio]], but they are part of [[Cruiser Division 711]] (CruDiv 711) which covers the American states of [[wikipedia:Ohio|Ohio]] and [[wikipedia:Kentucky|Kentucky]], which in turn is part of [[Task Force 22]], which covers the majority of the fleet outside of [[wikipedia:Minnesota|Minnesota]] and [[wikipedia:Wisconsin|Wisconsin]].
==History==
''Kodiak Max'' was first brought into commission on 30 November 2011 under the command of [[CAPTJG]] Michael Larson, by order of [[Bureau of Ships|BuShips]]. This ship was part of the original ships that were commissioned in [[Second Fleet]] in the [[wikipedia:Fargo, North Dakota|Fargo, North Dakota]] area. It was [[ValleyCon]] 37 (21-23 October, 2011), where David Weber was Author Guest of Honor, and {{hms|Merlin|CA-270}} operated a recruiting table. This was the first time that Weber saw [[TRMN]] members in action at a convention. Weber's presence recruited sufficient members for a local chapter. The ship eventually upgraded to {{hms|Leonidas|BC-584}} on 16 July 2012.

When Brian Horton founded his chapter up in [[wikipedia:Marquette, Michigan|Marquette, Michigan]], they took over the '''Kodiak Max''' on 27 September 2012. He ran the ship for the next year and a half, until [[CAPTJG]] Horton moved to the Twin Cities to become Tactical Officer on board {{hms|Valkyrie|SD-355}}. Command fell to [[CAPTJG]] Justin Dupras on 07 July 2014. He also served for a year and a half before turning over command to [[CAPTJG]] Greg Moyle on 16 March 2016. Unfortunately, he never tested up to his rank, and eventually when the [[Third Space Lord]] was instructed to crack down on the delinquents, the ''Kodiak Max'' lost their CO and XO, and Moyle was demoted to [[Chief Petty Officer]]. Unfortunately, with no qualified candidates to replace them, the ship was decommissioned on 30 October 2016.

It didn't stay in the [[Active Reserves]] long, as [[Second Fleet]] got it recommissioned in [[wikipedia:Avon, Ohio|Avon, Ohio]] under the command of [[CAPTJG]] Michael Timko on 30 December 2016. Despite the distance, the '''Kodiak Max''' has been known to support the fleet's efforts at [[MarsCon]] and [[CONvergence]] multiple times, serving at [[MantiCon]] and [[HonorCon]].
